Jackson County, West Virginia - Rhoads Cemetery

Submitted by Jeanie Rhodes , February, 1999

This cemetery is just behind the Middle School. We transcribed the last 5 stones and did a quick drawing of the cemetery. The rest of the stones were bulldozed into a ditch and covered over years ago.

The above is a reference to the RHOADS CEMETERY in Ripley, Jackson County, WV.
The remaining stones are:

1) Benjamin Rhoads / died Nov. 12, 1851 in the / 67th year of his age. (NOTE:
The original stone is weathered and standing upright. At its base is a new
granite stone with the same inscription. The new stone was added in June of
1998.--JLR)

2) Nancy, wife of B. Rhoads. / died Sept. 20, 1849 in the 53rd year of her age. (NOTE: The original stone is weathered and standing upright. At its base is a new granite stone with the same inscription. The new stone was added in June of 1998.--JLR)

3) Blank stone on the ground. (from the family record of Mark Rhodes, this
stone once read: William Rhoads, son of B & N. Rhoads / died 1844 in the 20th year of his age.)

4) M. R. (small, rough stone, upright)

5) Blank, small, rough, upright stone)

You may list me as the contact on this cemetery and if there are questions I can't answer, I will forward them to Mr. Rhodes (above).

I hope this helps someone.

Clark: According to the 1988 Parsons book, Charles W. was a deaf mute as a result of childhood measles. He died Aug. 17, 1929 (unm.).

Joshua, son of John Parsons, married Joanna Stewart, a niece of “Old Billy Stewart”. He was one of the earliest settlers on Seamon Fork, of Reedy. He made the first improvement on the Newhart farm there, about 1847. Later, about 1849, he built near where the old well on the Perry Hall farm at the head of Little Creek stands (John Hall said “Devil Bill” Parsons lived there before Joshua did.) Joshua afterward returned to Grass Lick, and died on Middle Fork of Poca. His children were:
Moses.
Elizabeth, married Nathan Hill.

Bishop's History of Roane county:

Thomas Reynolds and his wife Lucinda (Tolly) Reynolds, were among the oldest of the pioneer settlers on lower Spring Creek: Thomas was a son of Reuben Reynolds, of Rockbridge County, Virginia, a soldier of the War of 1812. Thomas Reynolds left two sons, William Lane Reynolds and F. Asbury Holt Reynolds. William L married Emily D, daughter of Joshua and Samantha (Miller) Runnion, of this union one son yet surviving is Joshua Thomas Reynolds, of the City of Spencer, now serving as office deputy of Walter A Carpenter, the sheriff of this county.

Of the several sons and daughters of F Asbury H Reynolds, we here mention Alonzo Silas Reynolds, a resident of the City of Spencer; he has served two terms as justice of the peace for Spencer District, years 1916 to 1924, inclusive; he is now office deputy of Gordie Boyles, the present assessor of the county.

John House:
John Greenleaf, his son, was born on the third day of August, 1816, and was sixteen years old at the time of the migration to Gilmer County (then Lewis County), and lived at Normantown nine years.

He married Sarah Norman, a daughter of James Norman, for whom the village of Normantown is said to have derived its name. She was a sister of "Sis" Ludwick's mother.

In May, 1843, John Greenleaf moved to a farm of over one hundred acres he had bought at Gay, on Elk Fork of Mill Creek. There was some improvement on the land when Greenleaf moved to it, but he did not tell me at the interview I had with him one day in July, 1904, of whom he bought. Being nearly eighty eight years old, and very frail, the old man's memory was bad, and having lost his land recently and been left in his old age without a home, his mind was affected, or, as he expressed it, 'he was "shook up" in his head'.

The first summer he lived on Elk, he made a light crop of corn on account of the lateness in the year of his arrival.

He worked for some of the neighbors to get grain for bread. David Litton, John Bord, and John Tolley were among his neighbors when he came. He helped John Bord, who lived on Frozen Camp, where Miles Bord now lives, to reap his wheat crop that summer.

When Greenleaf came to Elk Fork, he moved on pack horses. There was at that time an abundance of game in Gilmer County, but in Jackson County, it was already becoming scarce. There were some deers and a few wild turkeys yet.

While moving, he passed a night with William R. Goff, long one of the leading citizens of Spencer. He was then for five years a resident of the Goff homestead, had a small improvement, and a family of four children. Uncle Hi Goff, of Tanner's Run, was then a babe of two months of age.

It is said there were then only two other families living at Spencer, those of Samuel Tanner and Samuel Miller.

John Greenleaf was a minister of the Gospel, Southern Methodist Church.

He was Justice of the Peace for twenty two years, by appointment of the Governor, and four years President of the County Court, elected by the people. He retired late in the 80's.

John Greenleaf and Henderson Harper were about the same age. They died about the same time, and were buried the same day.

Elliot (C.E.) Greenleaf, of Elk Fork, one time assessor of Jackson County, was a son of John. He was born in Gilmer County a year before his parents moved to Elk Fork.

Beulah Greenleaf, who married U.S. detective, Dan Cunningham, was a daughter of Elliott.

Other children of John Greenleaf were:
J. W. Greenleaf, died unmarried.
S. E. Greenleaf, of near Red Knob, Roane County.
"Rua" Greenleaf, married Charles L. Bradley.
Caroline Greenleaf married John M. Bradley.
Riley Greenleaf was the oldest son, lived near Red Knob on Wolf Camp.
Ben T. Greenleaf was John's youngest son, died in the asylum, November 7th, 1910.

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 7 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.
