Henry Smith (formerly Henry Watts) seeking his brothers William and Sephus

DEAR EDITOR --- I desire information
of my brothers. I have heard
from two and two I have not heard
from. William and Sephus belonged
to Tilly Watts, in Lunengburg
county, Virginia, in 1842. I left
them there. Brother Jesse said
Sephus had moved from Virginia,
but he did not know where, and he
had not heard from William for
about nine years. My name was
Henry Watts. I was brought from
Virginia by a negro trader to Alabama.
My name is now Henry
Smith. Address me at Paris, Texas.
