MR. EDITOR --- I wish to inquire for my people in Georgia, Washington county. I left them during the war, living between Farbridge and Davis Burrows. My sisters were named Elmira and Julia; my mother Diana Rachel; my brother Louis belonged to Sylvania Prince. I wish you would inquire for them through your paper, and if any of the family is alive they will please address me, Esau Johnson, Cadiz, Harrison county, Ohio.
