Letitia E. Rodgers searching for her brother Arthur Zacheriah Tolaver
Southwestern Christian Advocate (New Orleans, LA)
September 16, 1880
MR. EDITOR— I desire to inquire for my brother. He belonged to one Shars (I do not know his first name), of Wytheville, Va. Brother's name is Arthur Zacheriah Tolaver. Mother's name was Millie. She belonged to John Woort at the time brother was sold to Bob Sanders, a negro trader, who took him to New Orleans. Brother worked and bought himself. He was living in New Orleans the last I heard from him—he sent me a small tin box with $100 in it. He was the oldest child and I am the youngest. I was taken away from all my people. Mother is dead. Brother was a member of the M. E. Church. Please address me at Lavernia, Texas. LETITIA E. RODGERS.
