The spelling of the name was changed in America about 1750 by adding a letter.
The first of this family hitherto traced by the family is 1 Capt. Simon Rhodes1 born in Newport, R. I., Jan. 24, 1716-7, though probably two or three generations preceded him in America. He m.

1. Anning, John, tailor, buys land in Wickapogue in 1687 of Robert Norris, yeoman. He is on the rate list of 1683 with three polls and £88, but not on lists of 1694 or '96.

3. Barker, Samuel. Freeman 1656-59. In 1666 is mentioned as a weaver, living in North Sea. Had w. Naomi and probably was father of William, who, in 1688 and later, appears as a merchant, living between Thomas Topping on the north (now the residence of Albert and James H. Foster) and Edward Howell on the south. As late as 1698 Willliam has no family ; names his Uncle Matthew in his will. He was written as "Mr." Left large estate, as appears by inventory in office of Sec. of State of New York. He died Aug. 14, 1702, at Southampton.

33. Gosmer, John Mr., sometimes called Cosmore (which mis- leads Savage), probably father of Richard (on whose estate he administers in 1649, and Richard appears to have died unmarried). and probably had also a d., who was w. of John Woodruff. John Gosmer 1659 gives his "adopted son," John Woodruff, all his houses and lands. In 1665, then deceased, he is called the grandfather of John Woodruff, Jr. He lived on the late residence of Charles Pelle- treau, and also owned a house and lot opposite to this on the other side of the street, late the residence of Frederic Howell. He came here with the first company in 1640. Was a man of wealth and much influence, and magistrate for many years. His wife's name was Elizabeth.
