Wanted to know where is Pesler Freshlow, my father. We were separated in slavery time, at which time I was about two or three years old, living in Fedful, Ark. My brother Rollin Freshlow was about nine or ten years old. Any information given will be highly appreciated.
Yours truly,
Maria Freshlow,
Now Maria Vance,
Dodd City, Texas.
