James Beaver searching for his mother's father Stephen Thomas, mother Priscilla Thomas, and her siblings

MR. EDITOR—I desire to inquire for my mother's kindred. Her father's name was Stephen Thomas; mother's, Priscilla Thomas; brother's Robert, Stephen, James, Henry, and Andrew Jackson; sister's, Virginia, Martha, Matilda and Louisa. Virginia was drowned in James river. Martha belonged to Albert Thomas, of Culpepper county, Va. Matilda and Louisa belonged to James Thomas. Mother's name was then Abby Thomas, and she was living in Louisville, Ky. with Dr. Steward Thomas. He sold her to Wm. Mathers, who brought her to Mississippi in 1848 or '49. She had one son then named Alexander whom she left with Dr. Thomas. She is now living with me ten miles from Memphis. Please address me at Capleville, Shelby Co., Tenn. JAMES BEAVER.
