In Reply to: Joseph/Josiah Rhoads/Rhodes of Fayette/Somerset County, PA. by Matthew Rhoads Moore of 975

Hi---I've been looking for a great-great grandfather, Josiah Rhodes, for years. No idea if he's the same one or not....

The Josiah V. Rhodes I've been looking for was supposedly born in PA, but some census records list him as being from VA, WVA, KY, or OH. (He ended up in Ironton & over the river in KY.)

Josiah V. Rhodes was born about 1814 and married Clarissa Hamilton (finally got her name and verified it!)
who is my alleged direct connection to Alexander Hamilton.

I've wiggled one brick loose in the proverbial brick wall I've been bashing my head into, and I'd love ANY leads you might offer.

Josiah V. (for Victor, I believe) Rhodes and Clarissa Hamilton Rhodes had four children:

Margaret L. Rhodes
Nancy Hamilton Rhodes
Sallie Rhodes
Anna Belle Rhodes (my great-grandmother)

They may have had a 5th, Elizabeth, who died in childhood.

Hope this helps!
