Biography
James was born in 1902.
A grandchild, descending from James' daughter Anna, remembers, "Why he moved to California: Grandpa Rhodes was a coal miner in Illinois. He moved to California so that his sons would not work in the coal mines. This was because James Richard Rhodes contracted black lung working in the coal mines."
He passed away in December of 1971.[1][2]
