Mary Matilda Vaughn searching for her father and aunt

TO THE PASTORS IN CHARGE OF
THE DIFFERENT CHURCHES IN
NEW ORLEANS:--I wish to make
some inquiries in your churches for
my father. His name is Wiley
Vaughan, and was a drayman. My
mother was sold from him and
brought to Texas. There are three
of us children - I being the young-
est [youngest]. My mother is Mathilda
Vaughan; my sister Louisa Vaugh-
an [Vaughan], my brother Wiley Vaughan. I
also have an aunt in New Orleans,
my father's sister - her name is
Eliza Hutchinson. My mother was
a member of the Harmonia Asso-
ciation [Association], and used to live on Jersey
street; she was a member of St.
Paul church. My home is in San
Antonio, but I am teaching school
in Riddleville. If there can be any
information given of my father and
aunt it will be thankfully received.
Write me at Riddleville; I shall be
here until the 25th of June.
MARY MATILDA VAUGHAN.
