I am not a direct descendent of this family. I am doing research for my children on my ex-husband's family. He comes down through Henry Rhinesmith, Anthony Rhinesmith, Margaret Louise Rhinesmith who married Daniel Waldron. His mother was a Waldron. The information I have on this family is from Vi Burkhart. She descends through Ann or Anna Mary Rhinesmith.
