Some More on Slave Reunions-- Part 2

I found the same photo posted at the Shorpy site of Jan. 19, 2009. This one was shown as being taken in Wasdington, D.C., circa 1916. It listed their names and ages: Lewis Martin, 100; Martha Elizabeth Banks, 101; Amy Ware, 103 and the Rev. Simon F. Drew, born free (perhaps like "12 Years a Slave?). The photo was taken at Cosmopolitan Baptist Churcg at 921 N. Street, N.W.. ////
