Hi Elouise,
Can you answer some questions for me about your Samuel Rhodes family. My
line is through George Rhodes then Samuel Rhodes of Rockbridge Va that came
to Jackson Co. (Gay Area) Also I have a line through Christopher Rhodes then
James C.M. Rhodes, I also have 2 aunts on my mom's side that married into
the Rhodes family.

Do you have any more information on:
1. The son of David H. Rhodes that lived in the Grass Lick area of Jackson
co.
2. Samuel Rhodes b1828 married Margaret b 1832
3. Zachariah Rhodes the father of Samuel Rhodes (m) Jane
4. The father of Geo. Luther Rhodes

I think I may have some of this family in with my family. Sorry to be so
long in asking you this but I have been having problems with my computer.
Thanks,
JoAnn Rhodes Jones
(I also have 2 Casto lines but will ask you about that later)
