Washington Ellerson searching for his mother Lucinda Lumpkins

MR. EDITOR: I desire to inquire through your paper for my long lost mother. We were sold in New Orleans on the same day. I was sold to a man by the name of Dr. Mitchell, who lived in Mississippi. I can not remember the man's name that mother was sold to. However, I was taken by my new master up the river, and mother was taken down the river by the man that she was sold to. Our former owner was D.W. Lumpkin, who resided in Holly Springs, Miss., Marshall county. My mother's name was Lucinda Lumpkins. I can not remember my father's name. However, we all belonged to the same man. I had a sister who was sold before we were, to a man who lived in New Orleans. Her name was Emily. I am my mother's only son. My mother will know me by the following description: My right eye is blue. Address me at San Antonio, Tex. WASHINGTON ELLERSON
