Notes |
- From an old record we learn that Charles Rhodes, the father of Esther, was, with another boy, kidnapped from England and impressed as a sailor, and while on the Jersey coast was fortunate enough to make his escape. His friends, learning
of his whereabouts, supplied him with some goods to start a store. A chest in which some of the goods were sent to him, was in the Wintermute family for a long time, until the spring of 1890 when it was sold at vendue with other goods disposed
of by David H. Wintermute, of Newton, and so passed out of the family. The chest had a drawer in one end and beneath that a secret compartment. Rhodes served as Surrogate of Sussex County for a long time.
- An old Bible of Charles Rhodes Sr, in possession of Mrs. Crissey, of Glenwood, says there were born to he and wife, Alice, a daughter, 25th of July, 1751, at sunrise; a son, Joseph, 27 June, 1755, at 9 o'clock a.m.; William, December 20,
1756, at 4 or 5 o'clock a.m.; Isabella, November 7, 1759; Charles, 19 June, 1763
