Chicago, IL: Warner, Beers & Co.,1887, pgs., 800-801 D. C. RHODES, blacksmith, Stoufferstown, P. O. Chambersburg, was born in Franklin County, January 21, 1847, a son of Christian and Martha (Metz) Rhodes, natives of Pennsylvania, and of English and German origin, respectively. In early life Christian Rhodes was a miller, later a farmer; his family consisted of five sons and four daughters, of whom D. C. is the sixth child. Our subject grew to manhood in his native county, and was educated in the district school. At the age of seventeen he commenced to learn the blacksmith's trade, which he followed one year. In 1866 he enlisted in the United States Regular Army, and served three years, two and a half of which he was orderly sergeant of the company which served among the Indians in the West. At the close of his term of service he returned to Chambersburg, completed his apprenticeship, and has since worked at his trade in Stouffers- town. He does all the work on the wagons made here, also on farming imple- ments manufactured in the town, and usually employs two blacksmiths. In 1870 he married Maggie, daughter of Samuel Disert, Sr., who was born in Cumberland County, Penn., September 16, 1812, a son of Samuel and Margaret (Au) Disert, who were also natives of Pennsylvania and of German and Irish origin. Mr. Disert is a prominent farmer in this township. Mr . and Mrs. Rhodes have two children: D. Frank and H. Edgar. Mr. Rhodes is a mem. ber of the I. O. O. F. . and an active and energetic Republican.
