Please read more about Garrett at Black Then…

Do you know: The man who used his wife’s fortune to fund the freedom of over 1,400 slaves.
This is so interesting! My ancestors include many abolitionists, among them John Brown. I’m proud of my roots, which also include Quakers, who abhorred slavery of any kind. Thank you so much for this story, Ms. Kyles! God bless.
