Individual:
John Pack married Jane Hutchinson.
Carol Pack Urban, one of the mainstays of the Roots Web Pack mailing li st, was kind enough to transcribe this for us from the archives in Richmond. It reads pretty dry until you think of Clara, age 13, having to comfort her 3-year old brother Josephus as Eliott Vawter took them home to work on his farm. Meshack, 10 years old, was going to have to grow up fast too.
