Berry Newton searching for his brother Anthony

MR. EDITOR— I wish to inquire brother Anthony. He belonged to Elias Hodges, of Barber county, Alabama. He was with a lawyer named Seals, in Clayton, Barber county, Alabama, the last time I saw him—about 20 years ago. I do not know what name he goes by now. His mother's name was Jennie: she belonged to Green Neeley. I belonged to Elias Hodges and was called Little Berry, as there were two Berrys on the place. Sister was sold to Jno. D Johnson as well as I remember; she also belonged to Green Neeley, and was sold with her husband, Phillip Johnson—her name was Martilda. I will pay for any information that can be given of my brother or sister. My address is Milliean, Texas. BERRY NEWTON.
