Date of death is April 2, 1830, age 77. Is this the Henry Rhodes who was father to David, Charley, Jess, Fatia and Mary Rhodes, all born in Buncombe County, NC? Wife's name may have been Susan. If you are related to this Henry Rhodes and we are researching the same line I would love to hear from you. Can't go any further on this line until I know more about Henry. Thanks!!!

You do have a problem! However it may not be insolvable. If you will tell me where you live, I might be able to refer you to a library near you that has the book "German Speaking People West Of The Catawba River IN NC 1750-1800" You may be descended from Peter Rhodes who was a RW veteran of Lincoln Co.and lived in Buncombe Co. then moved to Cape Girardeau Co., MO and then returned to Buncombe Co. He was residing in Henderson Co. where he applied for a RW pension on 24 July 1840. I do not have a full list of his children though there seems to have been a daughter Hannah and a son, Peter, JR. at least. He was a part of the family in Lincoln Co., NC, but just how is not yet known. You need to see the discussion in the book mentioned above. It has been reprinted and again available for purchase. Searching the Rhodes (early spelling ROTH) Family is akin to searching Smith and Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 28, 2004 5:57 PM Subject: [NCLINCOLN] HENRY RHODES This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
