  • Notes 
    • From "The Descendents of John Rhodes (of Stafford County, Virginia) Website)"

      Moses Rhodes received a Negro called Mallow from his fathers estate. He married the daughter of William Mead, a Quaker, in Loudon County, Virginia. The Fairfax Monthly Meeting records that Rhodes - Mary, formerly Mead, reported married out of un ity 30-3-1747; she wanted to make satisfaction but her husband objected, so she was dismissed 30-5-1748 and restored 29-4-1758 and her children received on her request. Women's Meeting notes: Mary Rhodes several years past went out in marriage a nd suffered herself to be dismissed, for which she now confesses her great fault and asks to be received with her children. Moses Rhodes was living on William Meads' lands in 1764, when a land grant to Mr. Joseph Hough of Loudon Co, 125 A on Kit toctan Mt on Secolon was described as "Adj Moses Rhodes formerly William Meads, Col John Carlyles, Francis Hagues now Charles Burns."

My five daughters Hannah, Mary, Abigail, Elizabeth, Ann shall have paid to them 5 pounds current money when of age. Wife Mary sole executrix. Proved by aff irmation at the Court for Loudon county 13 Nov 1769. William Mead served as security.
