Ashbel RHODES received a deed to 100 acres 27 Nov. 1838 under State Land Grant 395. This cost him only $5.00. What is such a grant? Does anybody have access to "Land Grants to Members of the Rhodes Family in North Calolina, VF Pam"? Where might I find this to make a copy? I'm trying to determine when and why Ashbel RHODES (b. 24 May 1811 in NY; m. Rachel COOK 9 Dec. 1845 in Union Co., GA; d. 20 July 1884 in Union/Towns Co., GA) came from NY or CT to NC. Thanks, Kenyon
