Biography

Instead of being the daughter of Jesse Maynard, it is also possible Rhoda Maynard may have been the daughter of Jesse's brother Moses Maynard and Sarah "Jenny" Greenstreet.

Sources suggest Rhoda Maynard was never married and Maynard was her maiden name.

1850 Pike Co,. KY annotated census excerpt:

No. 584 Rhoda Mainor (Maynard) age 36 KY (b. 1814 possible widow of Unidentified Maynard)
William T. 16 KY [William T. "Jackson" Maynard m. 1859 Mary "Polly" Starr, d/o Samuel & Nancy M. (Hensley) Starr]
John H. 14 VA [John Henry Maynard m. 1855 Comfort Sansom d/o James & Chloe (Chapman) Sansom]
Elizabeth 8 VA
James M. 6 VA [James B. Maynard m1 1870 Nancy "Nannie" Parsley m2 Levisa "Vicy" Dials d/o Robert & Elizabeth (Sparkman) Dials]
James E. 1 KY [James E. Maynard m. 1874 Melvina "Vina" Preece d/o William & Tabitha (Maynard) Preece]

Rhoda's nearest neighbors in household #510 were Edward Maynard age 52, his wife Katherine (Maynard) Maynard age 45 and their son Mark age 16.

Since Edward Maynard and Rhoda Maynard were closest neighbors who shared the same surname, they were probably siblings. Since Edward was the son of Jesse, it appears Rhoda was also a daughter of Jesse.


1860 Pike Co., KY census July 28

No. 584 Rhody Mainer 48 KY Domestic
James Mainer 11 KY
James Taylor 36 KY Farmer
Mary A. Taylor 30 VA [Mary Anne Ooten, daughter of Silas P. (W)ooten and Elizabeth (Williamson)]
America E. Taylor 11 VA
Henry Taylor 9 VA
John G. Taylor 6 VA
Mary T. Taylor 3 VA

Some of her nearest neighbors included her son William T. Jackson Maynard who was identified as "Jackson Mainer" according to the excerpt shown below:

No. 586 Jackson Mainer 30 KY
Mary Mainer 18 KY [Mary Starr, daughter of Samuel Star and Nancy (Hensley)]
Mary A. Mainer 2/12 KY

1870 Pike Co., KY census excerpt:

No. 96 Maynard, James 21 KY
Nancy 19 VA [Nancy Parsley, daughter of John Parsley and Jemima (Murphy)]

No. 97 Maynard, Rhoda 60 KY
Hensley, Susanna 7 VA

As the above 1870 census shows, Rhoda was living next door to her son James Maynard. According to the Martin Co., KY vital records, James had a daughter Rhoda Maynard who was born July 26, 1875 who was named after her grandmother Rhoda. James's daughter Rhoda Maynard married George Meade.

The last time Rhoda was found on a census was in 1870. Since she was not found on the 1880 census, she died between 1870 and 1880 or about 1875.

Rhoda was born about 1814. She passed away after 1870.
