Samuel Clemons
Thank you. Did not know about his adventures in the Confederate Army.
He passed Vicksburg many times during his steam boat career I am sure,
I looked very hard some time past for evidence that he had walked the Streets of Vicksburg,
Did not find it however, my goal was a small story in a local genealogy magazine.
Vicksburg was a rather strange place in those days.
I found where Major Wirtz, the only Confederate hanged for War Crimes was well knwon on the streets of Vicksburg.
