    1. Mae CARR (5 yrs) Kansas City, MO - November 1897
    2. John O'Brien
    3. "The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Saturday, November 27, 1897 SEEKING A HOME FOR MAE CARR. Mae CARR, 5-year-old daughter of William CARR, condemned to be hanged at Liberty December 17 for the murder of his 3-year- old daughter Belle, is in the city, in charge of Rev. E. A. POWELL, a representative of the Children's Home society of Missouri. CARR consented to the adoption of the child by the society a few days ago, and the Rev. Mr. POWELL is anxious to secure for her a home in a good family. Mae is a pretty and intelligent child, and exhibits none of the traits of her inhuman father. She is said to resemble very much her mother, who died two years ago, and who was, according to her acquaintances, a woman of unusually lovable traits of character. Rev. E. A. POWELL will be in Kansas City for several days. He may be seen at the office of D. ELLISON, Beals building, Ninth and Wyandotte streets, president of the local branch of the Children's Home society. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.)
