About this title

About the Author:

In 1989, the author began investigating information that she had learned as a child. The information concerned a European man who fathered four children with a slave in Louisiana. It was reported that once he left the area, he conveyed property to her to take care of his children. That began my quest. Thus, I have gone to numerous places to search the European man and the slave who had his children. Each of my five publications is a continuation of previous books. Since she had a total of ten children overall, each of the fathers involved in parenting these children was investigated.
