Amanuensis Monday: Charity Ambrose Deed to Mt. Olive Methodist Church
At last, some genealogy right?!! LOL. I decided to jump back into things with an Amanuensis Monday post. I have to thank a fellow genealogy friend of mine who helped me out a couple of months ago, Nathaniel Glasgow. He brought to my attention a deed which documents the sale of about an acre land from a woman named Charity Ambrose to the trustees of Mt. Olive AME Zion Church in Riverdale, NC. Guess who's listed among the trustees. My maternal 3rd great grandfather and his son, Mortimer and Alfred Mitchell.

ReplyDeleteThanks True :)
Deleteha ha ha... his arms appear to be missing but I sure can see his legs :-) Fabulous photo, fabulous fella!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! My husband and I love him to pieces. He's a great kid.
DeleteCute picture. Before I saw his "legs" I thought he was trying to lift the log.
ReplyDeleteI bet you that is how this picture started. My son is constantly trying to show how strong he is. He probably tried to lift the log and that is when my husband saw an opportunity for a great shot.
DeleteHe looks like a perfect woodland boy. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristin!
