L. W. C. Wilson searching for his father's relatives, including his father's mother Henrietta

DEAR EDITOR—I desire information of my father's relatives. He was owned by Captain James Wilson, in Sumner Co., Tenn., near Walnut school house, three miles from the city Gallatin. His father was named Adam Bug, owned by Sam Bug, who lived in Nashville. His mother was Henrietta, owned by Alfred Alexander, in Sumner Co., on Bledsoe Creek (or a similar name). She had four children named Susan, Henry, Matilda, Sarah, besides mp father; his name is Lewis. He was owned by Capt. James Wilson. He also had two aunts, one named Caroline Wilson and the other Malisa Wilson. They were owned by Stephen Wilson. He lived on Walnut Creek, three miles west of Gallatin. My father was sold to a negro trader by the name of Dick Featherson in 1844, and brought to Mississippi, where he has lived ever since, and has never heard anything of his relatives since he was sold away from them. He now resides at Clinton, Miss. Address me at Clinton, Hinds Co., Miss. L. W. C. WILSON.
