Amanda Overton (formerly Amanda Williams) looking for her family, including her mother Martha

DEAR EDITOR-- My mother's name was Martha. When I came from Virginia she lived in Lynchburg, Va., belonging to a Bob Morris who was proprietor of Franklin Hotel. I also left two brothers named George and John, also two sisters named Polly and Martha Ann, also two uncles named George and Radford, both of whom were blacksmiths belonging to a Mr. Sanders. Madison Williams raised me and sold me to Whitfield Smith who brought me South. All this was during the year J. K. Polk was elected President. My maiden name was Amanda Williams. If any one who reads this knows any of these people please address Amanda Overton, Camp between Bordeaux and Line streets, New Orleams, La.
