George W. Lenox (formerly George Smith) looking for his mother Christenia, sisters, and brothers

Dear Editor -- I wish to inquire for my kinfolks, mother, sister and brother. The last time I saw them was 1861. They belonged to Mrs. Harris the widow of Mr. John Harris in Lebanon, Mo. Mothers name is Christenia. She was married but I did not know her husband's name, as oldest brother Frank and I belonged to Mr. John T. Smith. I heard that Frank went to St. Louis and joined the army and died there. One of my younger brothers is Andrew Jackson. My other brother and sisters names I have forgotten. I only passed through there and saw them once. I have written letters but could not hear from them. I heard that they were sent to Texas, but I don't know where. I belonged to Mr. John T. Smith, at that time, and I went by the name of George Smith. George W. Lenox Little Rock, Ark.
