Complex chain of title issues in Marion County real estate case
Rhodes and heirs challenge lines of title from 1873 to 1886 across multiple deeds in Marion County Iowa. The contested chain runs through John K Rhodes to N C Towne and various grantees, with a 1878 decree quieting title in Joseph Rhodes. The case seeks correction by decree, noting lost or unrecorded deeds, dower allocations, and defective service on heirs as proceedings move to determine the true surface of ownership and the property described as NW and SW parcels in successive tracts.
