Share Information About This Ad
MR. EDITOR: --- I wish to find my people I left in Northumberland county, Virginia, on the Potomac river. My father was Isaac Sherman, mother Maria. I had one sister Eda, and she married James Thames, who was free born. There was sister Mary and brother Ephraim also. Father was a Baptist deacon. They belonged to William Hardin, and lived within one mile of the court house. I left them about thirty years ago. Address me at Brazoria, Texas.

HULLAN SHERMAN.
