Family units among slaves were almost always forbidden. Seventeen years after emancipation Quash has a wife and five children and is living near Elloree, South Carolina. Here begins one side of this family story. Dorothy Coles starts out to write a few words about her family, but questions lead her to uncover more of her family roots. Soon, she finds family she never knew about and they become part of a multi-generational story. The story tells of poor farmers from rural South Carolina who worked hard and ultimately became prosperous citizens in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It's a personal story filled with struggle. It's the story of the Hantons, the Randolphs, and their connections: A strong family who never gave up their dreams.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45550075347095,"sku":"9781986569453","price":1299.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781986569453.webp?v=1767130880","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-hantons-the-randolphs-and-me-my-familys-journey-from-slavery-in-the-deep-south-to-prosperity-in-philadelphia-pa-9781986569453","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
