Hello all! I am trying to track down the name of a ship that landed in New Orleans about 1860. At least 3 of the crew-members or passengers were Spanish, Pablo (Paul) COX, Arnault CATCHOT and ?? BENEZUE. Apparently there was a yellow feaver or smallpox epidemic onboard. The 3 mentioned Spaniard settled in Ocean Springs, MS.
I know both Pablo COX and Anrault CATCHOT served in the Confederate Army (Co. A., 3rd Mississippi Infantry Regiment). I am unsure of the sailor Benezue.
If anyone has the name of the ship, or anyother information, please let me know.
Russel
