DEAR EDITOR: I wish to inquire for my aunt Adeline Lomach, and her two daughters Sophronia and Laura Morgan. The last I heard of them they went to New Orleans about 1865. We lived four years with Thomas Abbey, of Claiborne county, Miss. At that time I was Paddy Abbey, but now I go by the name of William Young. Address me at Jackson, Mississippi.
