MR. EDITOR--I desire to find George Sparrow, born in Norfolk, Virginia. He was living there in 1848, but I heard that since he went to Boston, Mass. His father was a slave, but his mother was free. There were three brothers Cornelius, John, and George. Address me, P. Stephen Burton, at No. 100 South Franklin street, New Orleans, La.
