M. A. E. Tolbert (formerly Martha Ann Elizabeth Brooks) searching for her mother Elizabeth Brooks

MR. EDITOR--I am seeking the whereabouts of my mother. I left her in St. Mary parish, La., about the year 1860. Her name is Elizabeth Brooks. She had a little boy, William, about two years old when I left. We formerly belonged to Solomon Levi. I nursed awhile for Mrs. Capt. Atkinson. Her husband ran the steamboat T.D. Hiues. After this Rosa Levi, daughter of Solomon Levi, married Mr. Roadwoof Bare, and brought me to Texas. My father, Henderson Brooks, came to Texas the same year I did, but I don't know where he is. My name was Martha Ann Elizabeth Brooks Preachers and readers in St. Mary parish, I pray you, for the Lord's sake, to seek out my old mother. Address me M.A.E. TOLBERT, Care W.H. Jackson, San Felipe, Texas.
