      From Joyce Mertens:
      Roane Co Deeds
      James C. M. Rhodes by Mary A. D. Bruen and others by their deed bearing dates on the 15 day of December 1883.

      So he bought some of the Bruen land. I'm not sure of the spelling of that. By 1889 he is deceased and the deed is between Miles and Silvester and wife Helena. One mentions Charles B. Rhodes & wife. The early one is bordered by T. A. E. Wesson & Wife & Charles B. Rhodes & wife. 1891 mentions Martin Casto.
      The 1894 one has Rhodes spelled Rhoads but on the outside has it Rhodes. This year they sell this 39 acres to D. W. Rhoads and in 1895 he sells it back to Melissa Jane. It is bordered by: Situated on the head of Bare Fork of Mill Creek in Harper District, Roane County, W. Va. and bounded on the North by Charles Moore and East by Andrew Westfall, on the south by Silvester Rhoads and on the west by J. F. Cobb
      (Julian Frank Cobb)

      Anna Rhodes, Charles B. Rhodes & Sylvester & Helena Rhodes sold land to Miles in 1891. Another ones shows Miles and Melissa Rhodes bought land in Roane co. From Sylvester's widow Ann, Charles B. Rhodes and Malinda Litton Tolley in 1892.
