Mrs. Margret Harris searching for her brothers Albert, Logan, and Jordan

MR. EDITOR- Allow me to inquire for my three brothers, Albert, Logan and Jordan. We belonged to Mr. Houston, near Danville and Sanford, Ky. I was a child four years old when brought from there by James Cole, a son-in-law of old Sam Houston. He had been married twice, and both wives were named Betty. He had three children. My father and mother are dead; father was Anderson; mother fainted, fell into the fire and was burned to death. Albert was sold before I left. Logan was sold too. I heard that Jordan remained with old Sam Houston. My name was Margaret Ann, but I was called Peggie. I came to Texas with Cole, who sold me to Bledsoe, he sold me to Crekendoll, he sold me to McKay, and the war found me with him. I am married. Address me at Davilla, Texas. MRS. MARGARET HARRIS.
