1868-044 & 1868-044 (original 1868-035 cc)
1868 Albemarle County, Virginia
Transcribers Note: These two (partial) photographs are part of a larger suit, in which Thomas W. Rhodes, admin. d.b.n.c.t.a, filed suit against Robert P. Rhodes for monies owed the estate of their father, John W. Rhodes. The lawsuits surrounding this estate started shortly after the death of John W. Rhodes in 1846 and continued until the late 1870s! These chancery suits are not yet digitized by the Library of Virginia and may only be accessed in the Archives Research Room in Richmond, Virginia. If time and circumstances permit, I will return to Richmond to photograph and transcribe the entire chancery suit
