Orrin R. Clark searching for his father Dick Buford and brother Jerry Clark (formerly Jerry Norman)

MR. EDITOR - - - I beg leave to
make inquiry for my brother, father,
and my wife's brothers and sisters.
My father's name is David
Clark. He belonged to Dick Buford.
He left here about five years
ago, and went to Tennessee, where
my brother lived. Brother is Jerry
Clark. He did go by the name of
Jerry Norman. He has never been
to Texas. Four sisters and myself
are here now --- Amanda, Julia,
Harriet and and Sarah. Our mother
died Feb. 14, 1875; her name was
Rebecca. My wife's brothers and
sisters are Bettie, Dilcy, Elam,
Willie and Amos. The last I heard
of them they were in Alabama.
Some were about Pineapple. My
mother-in-law is here with me. We
were brought to Texas by Mr.
Jackson McMelan. Wife's name is
Ann; mother's Sarah. Address
me at Columbus, Texas.

ORRIN R. CLARK.
