Hannah's stolen mare! (General)

All of the Rhodes' in FOD in 1800s descend from Thomas Rhodes who came from Nottinghamshire and his wife Mary Frowen. So the William Frowen Rhodes of baptist church and grocer shop fame was his son (although probably not natural son) and uncle to my ancestor Thomas b1838.

I will follow up the stolen mare story as its nots clear from the OCR notes whether he was selling her a stolen mare (to assist her migration?) or had pinched hers. Either way an excellent find thank you!
