JONATHAN RHODE. (1830-1895) Jonathan was my great grandfather. Jonathan's
mother, Rebecca, died in 1838 when Jonathan was 8 years old. I believe that
his father remarried, but I do not have a record of that. According to a
letter from Aunt Kate Huff, Jonathan lived with his uncle until he was l6. He
worked on his father's farm until he was 21, and then farmed on shares at the
home farm and others. Jonathan stayed in Indiana for a time and married Dorothy Gray in
1855. They were second cousins. This is their picture.
