Not sure if I am reliable source for the info on my gg grandfather...I can't even spell my last name? It is Dorothy Duke Rhodes. The Stidham Society has an excellent rootsweb.com tree that you might like to peruse. It has a good deal of info on Winston Dilmus Stidham's family. Just do a rootsweb search on him. Good luck. Are you related?
