Laura Brown searching for her mother Katie Holmes and siblings
DEAR EDITOR—Will you please inquire for my people. My mother was Katie Holmes; she lived in Georgia in 1846. I was stolen from her in 1841, by Sam McCrary. My mother belonged to Bob McDonald. The last I heard from her she was in Jasper, Texas, Tyler Co., she belonged to Jim Delaney. I have two sisters who were with my mother, Amy Ann Holmes and Mary Jane Holmes. I also had three sisters who were brought to Texas, and one brother; Harriet, Rachel and Mary and Dennis Ragen. He stopped in Victoria, Texas. I have also another brother and sister, Hannah and Abraham, who was a twin to Rachel. Amy Ann and Dennis were twins also. The last I heard from them they were on Red River in Texas. I had a brother named January, married to Betsey. The last I heard of them they were in Jasper, Texas. The four that were brought to Victoria were owned by Wyatt Hanks. Mary Jane was left with John Hanks, and was married at that time to John Teel. Dan died three miles from Cuero, Tex. Brother Dennis died in Victoria. When Harriet left Victoria she had a daughter named Katie, after her mother. Address any information at Wharton, Tex. LAURA BROWN.
