Ask Wardaddy - I believe he spent some time In Brazil.
Yes
I’ve actually known some of those in Americana. São paulo state
And knew quite well many descendants of Capt. William Lankins Bradford
Who sailed with Semmes in CSA navy
Refused to surrender and resettled in Baranquilla Colombia and prospered and had many many little Bradfords there to this day
One is a freeper.
They are upper class gente in Colombia
I’ve seen his uniforms and sword displayed in their homes
And letters from Lee asking him to come home to VA
He had a riverboat company on the Magdalena
Never returned
