Notes for Baltis & Lucy's Dad BRANSON
I don't know that there's any relationship between those mentioned in the following or not, but I will post what I find here for later referral:
--------------------------------------------------
In the Aug. 24, 1790 Maryland Journal of Baltimore there appears the following ad:
"Ten Dollars Reward. Stolen in Mary last, from the Commons, near the Fort, a Bright-Bay Mare, about 14 1/2 hands high, 6 yrs. old this spring, her near hind Fetlock white, and part of the >>> one; she has a long switch tail, is Cat-ham'd, and has three white saddle-marks on her near side - Whoever takes up said mare and thief, and secures the thief in gaol (jail), so that he may be brought to justice, shall receive the above reward, or for the mare only, six dollars. - William Branson"
