MR. EDITOR—I desire to inquire for my sisters and brothers. I had seven brothers and four sisters. Oldest brother was Lewis Norris, then came Elias, Prince, Henry, Sam, Jerry and Warren. Oldest sister was Rhody, then Jane, Pris- cilla [Priscilla], Malinda and Charity. All went by the name of Norris, and were raised by Col. Joseph Taylor. My mother's name was Silvey Nor- ris [Norris] and belonged to Col. Joseph Taylor. Father's name was Prince Norris. He belonged to Mr. John- ny [Johnny] Norris and was his blacksmith. I left my brother Sam in Mobile, Ala., with Dr. William Taylor, and I left brother Henry in Montgomery, Ala., when he belonged to William Power. I was then with a specu- lator [speculator] on my way to New Orleans from South Carolina. We lived near a little village named Ander- derson [Anderderson] Court-house, five miles from the place where we were raised. I am now living in Algiers, La., and am married. JANE MAGRUDER.
