Clara Foltz searching for the family of her father Mitchel Oliver

DEAR EDITOR— I wish to inquire for my father's people. He used to belong to Mr. Andy Oliver, and was named Mitchel Oliver. He was sold to Dan Sally just before the war. Mother was Julia Oliver, and she had thirteen children—five boys and eight girls. Mother died during the war, while I was quite young. I was given to my young mistress Jane when she married Wm. Gray. Sister Hannah and I lived with her near Carrollton, Miss. When we became of age after the surrender we ran away to father, and he carried us to Mr. E. E. Foltz. In 1866, I married Ephraim Foltz and lived two miles south of Duck Hill. My post office is Duck Hill. CLARA FOLTZ.
