    The Rhodes Farm at Oakville, Cumberland County, PA
    The Rhodes Farm at Oakville, Cumberland County, PA
    The farm of Jacob and Barbara Rhodes, marked with a red dot on the left, in Hopewell Township, eventually also became the home of Joseph and Ellen Rhodes. A meetinghouse stood at this site, and a family cemetery. But a larger meetinghouse was erected in 1859 in the village of Oakville, the site of today's Oakville United Methodist church-house.

    Hopewell Township appears on the upper left of this map. Newton Townshp on the right, and Southampton on the lower left, of Cumberland County, PA. -- From H. G. Bridgens' 1858 Map of Cumberland County, PA.
