James Craig (formerly Dan Cunnigan) seeking mother Viney Bristo (formerly Viney Cunningan) and siblings
DEAR EDITOR—I wish to inquire for my mother, four sisters, and one brother. Mother's name used to be Viney Cunnigan, but married a man by the name of Allen Bristo. Sisters names are Oney, Alzara, Patsy, and Amanda Cunnigan. Brother's name, Nelson Bristo. My father's name was James Cunnigan. He died at Vicksburg in time of the cholera in 1866. Being quite young, I was persuaded by a man in 1868, to leave mother and the children, and I did so. In order to keep them from finding where I was, I gave myself the name of James Craig. My name while being with them was Dan Cunnigan. When I left Vicksburg mother and the children were living on Warrenton road, on Mr. Charles Clind's prairie. If any of the readers of the SOUTHWESTERN know of such names they will do me a kindness by addressing me at Belle Prairie, Yazoo River, Yazoo county, Miss. JAMES CRAIG.
