There were reporters from all over the world present when the first rider left St Joe on April 3rd, 1860 yet not one of them could discribe the young black orphan who rode out that day. The new American Hero could not be a black orpahn boy! Not the summer before the Civil War! The Pony express advertised for orphans and they recruited them. They were light weight, learned quickly and there was no backlash if the company lost a rider. Thought you'd like to know.

He was great nephew to Charlie and father of my mom Lois Ellsworth. Sounds like we are kin somehow. I was just wondering how much you know about Charlie and some of the books that have been written about him. Doug Johnson Dear Greg, I am grand son to Walter Miller.

She is now getting Charlies stories first hand. His legend lives on through her hard work and inspiration. I am currently working on a new book with Charlie as one of the main characters. It is derived from stories my Grandfather told me about his youth. He met Charlie when he was a boy and had some wonderful memories to share. I would love to see this story on the big screen. Certainly a G rated version. It is really a tale of finding your way home. Wherever that may end up being. Thank you Mom for being such a great inspiration.
