I wish to inquire through your paper about my mother and father. I was born in Athens, Ga., and belonged to John Dobbins, as also did my mother and father. My mother's name was Luly, father Waller. When i was about one month old Dobbins moved to Walton county, Georgia, on the Apalachee river: there I was raised, and he lived there until he died. My name is Henry, I was next to Matilda and Mack. My Mother had several other children whose names I cannot remember. When Dobbins died we were divided out. I fell to John T. Baker, son-in-law of Dobbins, and my mother and father fell to Dobbin's wife. Mrs. Dobbins moved to Monroe town, Walton county. I heard from one of my young masters, and he was still at the same place where his father died, but could not give me any information about any of my people; he said they were scattered all about from Georgia to Texas. Wm. Dobbins said that my fellow servant was still living where my mother lived; his name was Squire Hall, but I have never heard from him. I now go by the name of Henry Grant, and am about 52 or 53 years old. Any information will be gladly received. Address Henry Grant, Victoria, Texas.
