For all my fellow name nerds out there, I am very pleased to present the second annual "Gloyd Roberson Memorial List of Actual Human Children Who Wrote Letters to Santa in 1920s/30s Oklahoma".

These aren’t all necessarily “weirder than Gloyd” but fall into three rough categories which I’ve dubbed: “that’s got a nice ring to it”, “if I used this in a novel it would be considered too unrealistic” and “you’ve got 5 seconds to name a character that lives in 1920s Oklahoma, GO!”:

2004's New X-Men Vol.1 #152 pages 14-15 (featuring from left to right Beak/Tito Bohusk, headmistress Cassandra Nova Xavier, No-Girl/Martha Johansson, Wolverine/Logan*, E.V.A., Tom Skylark and Rover the Sentinel). Script by Grant Morrison, art by Marc Silvestri, inks by Joe Weems & Billy Tan, colors by Steve Firchow, Matt Milla & John Starr and lettering by Chris Eliopoulos.

*who hasn't aged a day despite the fact this final storyline (Here Comes Tomorrow) is supposed to take place 150 years in the future, thus supporting the fan theory that this future could be considered to be the dream of a dying Jean Grey (killed in New X-Men #150).

Anna Maria Weems: The Girl Who Became a Boy to Escape Slavery

Anna Maria Weems (circa 1840 to circa 1863) was an enslaved African American woman in Rockville, Maryland, who escaped by posing as a young Black livery man and carriage driver, assisted by the Underground Railroad, in September 1855. She later settled in Canada with other members of her family who had also escaped from slavery.

Weems traveled under the alias "Joe Wright" and, later, "Ellen Capron." The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 made it increasingly difficult for escaped slaves (freedom seekers) to remain in free states, as by law, anyone with knowledge of their whereabouts was compelled to turn them in to authorities and assist slave-catchers in hunting them down and returning them to their former masters.

Once Weems arrived in Philadelphia, William Still (1819-1902) sent her on to New York, and from there, she traveled to Canada, crossing on the Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge, the main route taken by many freedom seekers from the United States to Canada.

Weems is not the only woman to have escaped slavery disguised as a man. The most famous such fugitive is Ellen Craft (1826 to 1891), who, with her husband William Craft (1824 to 1900), escaped from Georgia in 1848 with Ellen posing as a Southern gentleman and William as 'his' slave. In 1854, Clarissa Davis (later known as Mary D. Armstead) escaped from Virginia posing as a man and, hidden in a box onboard a boat, arrived safely at the Philadelphia home of William Still.

Weems' story is not as well-known as Ellen and William Craft's Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom, or, in some circles, as Davis's escape, but it highlights the lengths to which enslaved persons went to win their freedom.

Early Life

Anna Maria was born circa 1840 to a free father and an enslaved mother who was owned by one Adam Robb of Montgomery County, Maryland. John and Arabella Talbot Weems had six sons and four daughters, all born into slavery except the youngest, Mary, who was born after Arabella had been freed; all the others were the property of Robb because their mother was enslaved. When Robb died in 1847, his slaves were passed down to his daughters.

One of the daughters, Catherine Robb Harding, struggling with debt, sold the Weemses to slave traders who separated the family. Anna Maria and her sister Catherine were sold to one Charles M. Price. The Weems family's situation came to the attention of the abolitionist William L. Chaplin (1796-1871), an agent of the Underground Railroad, who helped two sisters escape to the North. With financial assistance from abolitionists in England, Chaplin and others established the Weems Family Ransom Fund to free the rest of the family and reunite them in Canada.
