Description
Her entire lifetime since freedom from slavery devoted to one position is the remarkable record of Mrs. Lulu Robinson, an old negress, who for 41 years has been employed in the passenger depots of Kansas City in the West bottoms. “Aunt Lou” was a slave. She was born in Missouri 67 years ago (born ~1839), and 65 of the 67 years of her life have been spent within the state. She was born on the plantation of Sam Cavanaugh near Weston in Platte County. She has been twice married, and is the mother of 10 children. (Researcher’s note: The 1860 Platte County Census listed S. G. B. Kavanaugh, 48 years old from Kentucky, living in Green Township with Polly, 55 years old from Kentucky.)Date(s) of Creation
