MR. EDITOR - I desire to inquire for my relatives. My mother left all her relatives in Kentucky. Her father and mother were Bennet and Deliley Johnson; her brothers were Rolling, Elisha, Westley and Bob Johnson, and also a brother named Smith Bolett, by father; her aunts were Betty and Sally; she left them all in Cloverport, Ky. They all belonged to Zeak Fisher, brother of Clayton Fisher. My mother was named, at that time, Sally Johnson; she left her son in Elizabethtown, Ky., ssven miles from Harding county; before peace was declared his name was Henry Clay Brown; she used to belong to Thos. Brown, brother of Elisha Brown, and her name was at that time Sally Brown, but is now Sarah Forrest. My father, Hardy Forrest, now deceased, left his relatives on Stanley's Creek, Gaston county, North Carolina. His parents were Samuel and Lucy Forrest; brothers, Moses, Orange, Jerry and Wart Forrest and a sister named Margaret Forrest. My guardians, Geo. and Sally Hunter, left the city about fifteen years ago, and said they were going to Norfolk, Va., but I never heard from them. I am anxious to hear from all my relatives. Ministers in Kentucky, North Carolina and Virginia will please read this from their pulpits. Any information will be thankfully received. Address, Chestnut, near Valence street, New Orleans, La. BENNET FORREST.
