Noah Foltz (formerly Noah Connor) seeking his mother Peggy Connor and siblings

DEAR EDITOR—I am anxious to hear of my kinfolks. I left them in North Carolina in 1859. My mother was Peggy Connor. Father was sold from mother in 1858. We lived in Madison county. I had three brothers, Alex, Chemond and Rue, and two sisters, Sarah and Caroline. Brother Alex was sold to a man in Charlotte, S.C. I have a sister Betsey, who was sold to a trader named James Davis. Mr. Davis bought me, carried me Richmond, Virginia, and sold me to Ed Foltz, who brought me to Mississippi. I am still living with him at Duck Hill, Miss. I used to go by the name of Noah Connor, but now take the name Foltz. I have eight children living, and one dead. I had a step father Sias Connor. Master had two sons Harry and Charles when I was sold. Address NOAH FOLTZ. Duck Hill, Miss.
