Hope someone can help me. I am trying to locate additional
information on
the John Rhodes family of Gilead (Perry Twp.), Miami Co.
I do not have immediate access to the 1850 census of Miami County, but
these four references are relevant:
Adam E. Rhodes (Peru, Miami Co., IN, p. 086)
Sarah Rhodes (Perry Twp., Miami Co., IN, p. 146)
Talcott Hurlburt (Perry Twp., Miami Co., IN, p. 145)
Ira Mitchell (Perry Twp., Miami Co., IN, p. 148)
Jane Mitchell (Perry Twp., Miami Co., IN, p. 149)
I'd be most grateful for anyone's help obtaining the information contained
on these pages.
Also, does anyone have access to the tombstone inscriptions for the old
Gilead Cemetery? I suspect that some of these Rhodes/Mitchells/Hurlburts
are buried there.
Here is what I have so far. Can anyone add anything further?
Thank you so much!
