This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

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.. ////
