MR.

There were six brothers of the Atkisons, William, Robert, Rogers, Thomas, John and Joseph. My father and mother were Martha and Peter Howard, mother was called Patty; sisters, Eliza Jane the oldest; Violet, Chloe, Mary, some are dead. My oldest brother was William, then Peter, Robert. All were Howards. My grandmother was Chloe Jones, and Aunt Eveline Wilcox, grandmother's youngest daughter was Chloe Thompson, by marriage. I have found one of my cousins, Mary Gillis, her brother is Robert Gillis, wife Rachel Gillis. My name was Maria Howard, but some called me Annie Maria. I am now Maria Fisher. Address Maria Fisher, care George H. E. Fields, Bellville, Austin county, Texas.
