Jennie Crawford (formerly Jane Jones) seeking her relatives, including her parents Joe and Phoebe Jones

MR. EDITOR--I desire to inquire for my relatives. I was born in Virginia, Hanover county, and belonged to Mary Randall Thornton. Her brother, Luschea Price, raised me. When I was thirteen years old I was sold by Ben Pollard to Mr. Lampkin in Richmond, Va. Lampkin was a Negro trader and he sold me to Mr. Hill, who brought me to Charleston, S.C. Since that time I have not heard from any of my relatives. My father's name was Joe Jones, my mother's Phoebe Jones, two sisters, Hennetta and Leacy Jones, two brothers John and Anderson Jones. Brother John was preacher in the Baptist church. Two uncles, Sam and Ben Jones. My own name was Jane Jones, but I am married to Alfred Crawford, and go by the name of Jennie Crawford. Direct all information to Jennie Crawford, care of Rev J. F. Cozier, Pastor of M. E. Church, Montgomery, Tex.
