I am the oldest child and got lost from her and the children during the war, as she stopped to get some meal from a mill, and the army soldiers moved on. I have never seen or heard from them since. I think it was Sherman's raid in North Carolina. Before the war we were owned by Gary Druhorne, in Simpson, N.C., and after his death his widow mar- ried a Mr. Hudson, and at her death we were divided off to the children of Gary Druborne. His children were George T., one I cannot re- member, Martha Jane, Francis Ann and Nora. Uncle Mack was sold to Blaney Williams, near or in Clin- ton, N.C. I was called by the names Nettie, Nep, Hetty and Big Sister by my brothers and sisters. Their whereabouts will be gladly learned by me. Adress me, Ester Turner, New Haven, Conn.
