General Notes: Elizabeth Amanda Barnes second marriage to Joseph P Taylor was 19 July 1861 in Cass Co., Nebraska. Marriage license is filed in Vol A, page 74, Cass Co., Nebraska Marriage License in Court House in Plattsmouth, Nebraska. The following was given to Don Conley by Thomas Gray of Bickleton, Washington:

Amanda Elizabeth Barnes daughter of a Souther Plantation Farmer and John C. Gray.
He was a saddle maker and were married in Alabama. Living there until they had 4 children. Thomas Peter born March 29, 1844. Three girls; Rebecca, Sarah and Alice. After the death of her husband, she and her children moved out to Nebraska to be near an Uncle Barnes. After coming to Nebraska, papa helped to support his mother and sisters. Then his mother married Charles Henry Taylor. He was a widower with two boys and one girl. When the Civil War broke out papa wanted to join the Union Army. His mother refused. He then left Nebraska and went with a group of people that were going by Ox team to Colorado and where he enlisted. He was discharged on or about July 16, 1866. He served 3 years and 9 months of which was the war with Indians . On or about the 16th day of July 1865 I am not sure if his mother and Taylor were ma ried before he enlisted in the Union Army or while he was in the service. His sisters: Rebecca married Edward B.Carroll, Sarah married Bob Rountree, Alice married Bob Chandler. On September 12, 1866 Charles Henry Taylor was born, a half brother to the Gray children. I remember papa saying never turn a hungry person away, give them some food of what you have, For at one time before the Army he was not working he made his home at Uncle Johnny Carroll. He and the Carroll boy were close friends. I remember him telling that one time they had only fat bacon and brown sugar to eat. For a year or more he and Lash Carrell were with a Circus and papa played his banjo and sang songs like, Yellow Rose of Texas, I left Alabama with a banjo on my knee and several more. There is a picture of a little man standing by and there is also a tin type picture of papa and Uncle Frank Carroll taken in Nebraska City where they had gone to have some machinery repaired. The had a trapeze act in the circus. When Ralph Carroll was here from his home in Canada he came to visit me. He reminded me of the long years of friendship between our families. Later papa went to work in the machine shop in Plattsmouth, Nebraska, where he met Frank Badgley a cabinet maker and they became friends.

Listed on 1860 Basham Gap Morgan County, Alabama census at what appears to be 9 years of age, but is probably 7, as ages of Thomas Jefferson and James M. are different on 1900 Conway County Arkansas census.

Margaret Merrick of Jacksonville, Arkansas, states that her grandfather, Thomas Jefferson Rhodes, told her that he and James had come from Alabama in 1880 by ox-drawn wagons, a trip that took one year to make.

1900 Nichols Township Conway County Arkansas census ED 10 Sheet 12 Line 68 lists a James M. Rhodes (45), born September 1857, farming on rented farm as head of household, born in Georgia, father and mother born in North Carolina married to Colorado (Stover?) (46) born April 1856 in Alabama, married 18 years, father and mother born in Alabama, mother of 9, 5 living, Jerry White (20) born May 1880 in Arkansas, black, hired hand. The fact that no children are in the residence seems unusual as Colorado ("Rade") reportedly had none.

This entry created some confusion, as birth place and parentage paralleled that of the James M. Rhodes who is the brother of Thomas Jefferson Rhodes. On the same census page line 61 is a "Woodie" Rhodes (27) head of household born August 1872 in Alabama, farming rented farm, born in Alabama, father born in Georgia, mother in Alabama, wife Kissie A. (28) born October 1871 in Arkansas, with children Lorida (6), Authur C. (2) and Clide R. (8/12). At first this was thought to be a son of James M. and his first wife, Delphia McDaniel. Marriage bond signed by C. W. Rhodes and L. D. Stover, provided by Mary Brents of Morrilton, Arkansas for C. W. Rhodes and Kissie A. Bennett of Lick Mountain, Conway County, Arkansas was obtained with this thought in mind. However, this may be just a coincidence, although an astonishing one. There is a Colorado Stover in the 1860 Lawrence County, Alabama census, further muddying the waters. James M. and Rhoda (Rade or Radie) were not found on the 1900 Conway County census, although they could have been overlooked.

(Further research reveals that Colorado and "Rade" or Rhoda Stover are one and the same)

There is a Colorado Rhoades (Rhodes) buried adjacent to J. M. (James M.) and Rade (Rhoda) Rhodes at Sunnyside Cemetery in Conway County, Arkansas with the notation written on a small marker that reads: Mrs. Colorado Rhoades died February 1925 age 72 yr. 9 mo., 20 days (Harris ? Funeral Home, Morrilton, Arkansas. (Date of death: Actually 17 February 1935 - writing on tag blurred)

Listed on 1910 Nichols Township Conway County Arkansas census ED 10 Sheet 5B enumerated 22 and 23 April 1910 by Robert B. McCrackin as Jim M. Rhodes Head of Household (58) Married twice, to present wife 30 years, born in Georgia, father and mother in North Carolina, farming on own account on rented farm, Radie (Rhoda) wife (50) born in Alabama, father and mother born in Alabama, married once and mother of no children.

James (Uncle Jim) and his wife Rade (Rhoda) are buried in unmarked graves in Sunnyside Cemetery in Conway County, Arkansas. In an adjacent grave is Colorado Stover Rhoades (Rhodes).

Further research revealed Colorado Stover to be the daughter of Lorenza Dow and Amanda (Mandy) Stover Sr. and born in Lawrence County, Alabama. She appears on the 1860 census of that county at age 2, in 1870 at 12, and 1880 at 22. No record of a marriage to James M. Rhodes was found in Lawrence County. Colorado's brother was Lorenza Dow Stover Jr. and it is believed that he and his family came to Arkansas with Thomas Jefferson and James M. Rhodes in 1880. (Although Margaret Merrick of Jacksonville, Arkansas stated that the Rhodes and Stover families came to Arkansas in 1880, a marriage record of L. D. Stover's second marriage to Cordelia Cornelius on 21 October 1883 in Lawrence County, Alabama, presents some doubt as to the dates.)

L. D. Stover, living in Solgohachia, Arkansas in May 2000 is his grandson and states that the death date on the marker of Colorado's grave is in error, that she died later than 1925, probably around 1935. He remembers her and that she moved in with her brother after the death of her husband.

1900 Nichols Township Conway County, Arkansas census ED 10 Sheet 12 Line 68 lists James M.

The niece who has done much research is: Beth Konshak, RR#1, Wembley,Alberta,Canada TOH 350. Edward's first wife was: Rebecca Francis Gray. I do not know where she is buried, however, Cecil Everett, who lives in Bickleton, Wa should know, she is his aunt. Our daughter-in-law has done extreme research on the family tree, but has put it aside for a while. Would surely enjoy meeting you sometime. It is always great to find a missing link in the family chain. Yours truly, D R Carrell."

OBITUARY

Edward B Carrell

Edward B Carrell died suddenly in Bickleton, Monday, June 17th, of heart failure, aged 72 years. Mr. Carrell was taken ill a few weeks ago, caused probably by over-exertions, and apparently was slowly recovering his strength. Monday morning, he said, he was feeling better and made up his mind to walk down town, and see Dr. Brokman about signing some pension papers. He got as far as the hotel and stopped on the porch to rest. Mr. Emmet Wriston offered to go for Dr. Brockman, and have the papers signed there, but Mr Carrell thought if he had some liniment, he had been using for neuralgia, he would be better. Mr. Edmond Gleason procured this and went to call the Doctor. Before his return, Mr. Carrell quietly passed away in the chair. The body was taken to his home. The funeral took place at 11:00 O'clock Wednesday, the Rev C.W. Johnson conducting the services in the Methodist Church. The funeral was attended by a large number of friends and relatives of the deceased. Interment was in the Oddfellows Cemetery. Edward B. Carrell was born in Kentucky in 1840. In early life, he moved with his parents to Missouri, thense to Iowa, where he remained until 15 years old, later going to Nebraska. He was married in 1861 to Rebecca Gray, To this union, 14 children were born, six of whom with their mother are dead. Mr. Carrell enlisted in the army in 1864. He came to Bickleton a few years ago, and was married October 18, 1910 to Mrs Mary M. Jordan ( Worley).

CONLEY RETIRES FROM FIRE DISTRICT #2

It is very frequently the people behind the scenes, those that just keep things moving , are the silent majority that really gets things done, quietly and with persistence. Clyde Conley is one of those people. Clyde Conley retired from the position of Secretary of Fire District #2, Dec. 31, 1990, but his actual retirement date was February of 1989. On the date of his retirement in February of 1989, he was asked to stay on for the sake of continuity, so he did. Upon his retirement, he had spent 34 years as the secretary of Fire District #2. While doing this public Job, Conley was also serving as secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. During his tenure, Conley had to prepare minutes of each meeting and see to it that copies of the minutes went to each of the three fire commissioners, a job that entailed a large amount of detail and bookkeeping. Conley also had to keep fire commissioners informed of previous matters that would have an influence on the decisions that they were making. He was responsible for having the paperwork and accounting ready for auditors and he also had to be aware of annexations and annexation policies and how they would affect the workings of the fire district Fire Chief, John Soden, recalls that Conley never missed a meeting. "He was always attentive, and kept good minutes," Soden said. "He showed a definite concern and interest for the people of Fire District #2." Throughout Conley's time as the secretary, fire district grew . It was incorporated with the City of Selah on Sept 26, 1966, and later incorporations included East Selah, Lower Wenas and Upper Wenas. Each time a new area of responsibility was added , Conley's responsibilities grew. Conley had to be aware of the various types of roads and whether access of specific types of fire fighting vehicles would be possible. All problems had to be anticipated. When Conley started as the secretary, the three fire commissioners were Axel Samuelson, Ed Brown and William Dowdy. Clyde Conley is now (1991) 85 years old, and can, at last, turn the wheel over to someone else. Carl North, firefighter and high-school teacher, is the new secretary of Fire District #2. Conley lives in retirement in Selah. (Source : Yakima Herald, 1991)

GETS BEAR STORY OUT OF DEER HUNT

Clyde Conley shot a nice two-point buck far up in the Wenas on Sunday and he almost got a bear in what he terms the hard way, The bear, probably frightened by hunters, came tearing down the ridge on which Clyde was walking. There was not much room to pass so Clyde let out a husky yell and the bear swerved to the side. About that time Larry Tyrrell got in a good shot and bruin rolled to the bottom of the small canyon and two more shots failed to stop him. Clyde sheepishly reported that Bobby Dubuque, who was in the party, also ran. (Selah news paper, sometime in the 1940's)
