MR. EDITOR―I desire to inquire through your paper for my people. I left them, in 1839, on the eastern shores of Virginia. I belonged to a man by the name of Jas Mocksey, was bought from Mocksey by a man named Harvey and sold by a man named Dozier. I was six years of age when sold, myself and another brother. My father's name was Hunphrey Hannford. Mother belonged to Mocksey, but was left at Mr. James Harvey's; her name was Maria Mocksey. I had one sister and two brothers with mother: Eliza, James and Milton. My brother Henry was sold with me from James Harvey's. Brother Henry and I were brought to Richmond, Va., and from there was sold and was brought to Georgia; I do not know what became of Bro. Henry. If anyone knows of them they will please write to me at Rome, Ga. My name is Thomas Mullen. Please write in care of Rev. E. L. Hammett, for I am anxious to find my people whom I have not seen since I was 6 years old. Address Rev. E. L. Hammett, pastor M. E. Church, Rome, Ga.
