Dianah Johnson is searching for her mother, sisters, and brother who she left in Roan County, NC. Her mother's name was Hannah Hilliard, her sisters Jinsey, Flora, and Lucy, and brothers John, Benjamin and Miles Calvin. Her father, Jack Hilliard, died when she was an infant. She was sold by the Hilliard estate to a speculator named Bill Hardin who brought her to Texas where she has lived ever since.
Nearly identical to an ad taken out a few months earlier: https://informationwanted.org/lastseen312/items/show/2448. Some minor spelling differences: Dianna instead of Dianah, Hellard instead of Hilliard, and Haden instead of Hardin. She also doesn't mention the passing of her father or their county, which was likely added for the later ad.
