Jack Rhodes searching for his sons Jack Rhodes and Solomon

DEAR EDITOR: --- I wish to find my sons whom I left in Claiborne county, Mississippi, one year before the war. They belonged to different families. The oldest one, named after me, Jack Rhodes, was born at Widow Escand's, three miles from Grand Gulf. His mother was Sarah, and he was the only child she had when I left. His grandparents were Rose and Peter, uncles were Ephraim and Fagans; aunts were Harriett, Fanny and Heziah. The youngest son, Solomon, named after my father, was born near Port Gibson. His mother Clarissa died when he was quite young, and he belonged to Elizas Bridge's family. His stepfather was Skinner Semmes. He had an elder brother Sam, I have never heard anything since he was small. Address me at 185 Soraparu street, New Orleans. JACK RHODES.
