DEAR EDITOR: ---- I wish to inquire for my people whom I left when quite young. I have not heard from them since I left them in 1864. We landed at Mason Island near Washington, D. C., and were taken to East Liberty, Pa. My name at that time was Margaret Roy, but I have since married. Father was Seymour Roy, mother Eulaid Roy; brothers were Seymour, Morris, Thomas J. and George W. Roy; sisters, Rose, Rosaline, Melvina, Eliza and Pocahontas Roy. We were born in King William county, Virginia, and belonged to Mattie Dudley. Address me at 1805 Franklin Avenue, St. Louis, Mo.

MARGARET WILLIAMS.
