Rick, I have not been able to find out how the name Paralee ties in with my Rhodes Family. I have only run across it a few times but never where I could tie it in with my family. I have also run across Levi Rhodes but have not tied him in to my Rhodes line at this time. I also noticed that you show his mothers surname was Hipp, You may want to check out the following URL. They have a daughter named Paralee and One of the Replies mentions a Rhodes married to a Hipp. The URL is: http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-genforum/pageload.cgi?paralee::rhodes::837.html Roy Rhodes Lubbock, TX
