The Benezue made their way over to Harrison Co.,MS as Rapael shows up in 1900 age 19 father from Spain.

The Benezue family has alot of the kin down around Jackson and Harrison Co.,MS

I know of a Joseph and Raphael at this point but have not found their connection yet but we have some Benezue granchildren in a h/h of Spratleys so there is a connection.

I am trying to piecce together our Ladnier/Benezue/Spratley connection.
