Caroline Rhodes (formerly Annie Ferrill) searching for her father Joseph, mother Milly, and siblings
Southwestern Christian Advocate (New Orleans, LA)
September 16, 1880
DEAR EDITOR— I wish to inquire about my relatives. I was born in Virginia, but am unable to name the county; but I remember that it was 12 miles from Daville. My master was James Ferrill and mistress Martha Ferrill. I was sold to Ferrill's brother, William Ferrill, a speculator, and was brought to Mobile at the age of 10 years. To my recollection father's name was Joseph, mother's Milly, brother's Anthony, and sister's Maria. We belonged to James Ferrill except one sister, Julia, and I don't know who she belonged to. My name was Annie Ferrill, but my owner changed it to Caroline Rhodes. Direct your letters to 185 Soraparu street, New Orleans, La.
