Alex Barnes searching for his mother Matilda Townsend

I desire to inquire for my mother, Matilda Townsend, raised by a man named John Townsend, in Floyd county, Georgia. She was sold there to go with her husband, and left me there. My name was Alex Townsend; now I go by the name of Alex Barnes. In a short while both were carried to Mississippi. Her husband's name was Phil Patrick. The last letter I received from her she was in Mississippi preparing to come to Texas. Any information will be gladly received. Send in care of A.M. Mason, box 6, Victoria, Texas.
