Hello, On your list of students my legal name is Paige Kathleen Sherman but that is not the name I wish to go by. The name I prefer is Ashton Kathleen Sherman. I am sorry for the trouble of trying to learn my name when it is different than what is on the list of names that were given to you. But I would appreciate it if you would call me by my preferred name. I just don’t feel conferrable as Paige. It is not mine it is a name that I never wanted. Sorry for the trouble but I hope you will understand. Thank you
Sincerely,
Ashton Sherman

    Born in Roanoke, Virginia, Dinah Cox was the slave of John Randolph. She was a mother, lived to be one hundred and five years old, and had an extraordinary memory. Cox was freed of her slavery in 1833, when Randolph passed. In Randolph’s passing he freed his slaves and apologized to all of them. Everyone called Cox Aunt Dinah.
