How many sons did Ishmael have and where can you find it in the Holy Bible?

The bible does not tell us how many sons he had, only that he became the father of the Ishmaelites, a wandering race of people. According to the Bible, Ishmael had 12 sons who became twelve tribal chiefs. 13And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, 14And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, 15Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah: 16These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
