My line is only partially trackable - Lonnie & Essie Rhames were my grandparents, and I'm asking relatives nowadays for any more they can give me. Interesting note - I am caucasian, and many of the Rhameses in NC are African american. I'd love to find the connection. Anyway, I'll be in touch when I learn more. Later! -L.
