Salley Benell searching for her son Cole Grifford

DEAR EDTOR--I wish to inquire
for my son, Cole Grifford.
He came from Butler county, Alabama,
to Texas in 1836, and went
back to Mississippi with Edward
Grifford in 1837. I have not heard
from him since. He was sold from
Liberty county, Texas. He was
my only child. I belonged then to
Rayford Grifford, and now go by
the name of Mrs. Salley Bennell. If
he is living I have a home for him.
Address me care Rev. J. Smith,
Beaumont, Texas.
