    The Eyster Family source I quote has this Catharine married to George Shall; although the Yoder Web site has her married to Yost Yoder. I prefer what I have and go with a niece of this Catharine married to George.

    OY15- Elizabeth b. 12/12/1751 m. Mathias Rhodes had seven
    children d. 12/6/1790 -"39 years,less 20 days "
    Some Rhoads Descendants of Yost Yoder of Oley, Berks County, Pa.
    by Rodney F. Rhoads- YNL 30
    The granddaughter of one of the first two Yoder immigrants to the
    new world, Yost Yoder of Steffisburg, Switzerland who settled in Oley,
    Berks county,PA was Elizabeth Yoder ,born to his son John Yost Yoder and
    Catherine Euster(Oyster, Luster) in Oley township in December 26, 1751.
    Elizabeth married Matthias Roth (Rhoads) of Amity Township, Berks
    County,PA . The exact date of marriage is not currently known. Seven
    children were born to this union.
    The Rhoads family who became linked to the Yoders arrived in
    America in 1717 at Philadelphia. In Wuerttemburg, specifically in Bonfeld,
    the family surname was ROTH.
    Johann Jacob Roth (Jr) was a first settler in Amity township, Berks
    county, PA and purchased land there immediately upon arrival in 1717. His
    second son, Johann Jacob Roth (III), born in Bonfeld in 1711. remained in
    Amity and married Anna Elizabeth ________ prior to 1738. Their son
    Matthias, b. 1742 married Elizabeth Yoder and had children: Mary, Esther,
    Jacob, Joseph, Abraham, John.
    It is interesting to note that by this time all parties were using their
    surname of RHOADS ,although in the church they still continued to be
    recorded as ROTH. For example, the church records of the German
    Reformed Church -Schwartzwald -Rev. William Boos - has a burial ...ROTH,
    Matthias, his wife-December 21,1751-December 6, 1790 39 years,less 20
    days... (Elizabeth Yoder Rhoads). and also had a baptism of note: Parent-
    Matthias Roth- Joseph,born Nov. 12,1785, baptized October 21,1787.
    Sponsor, the father.
    Matthias Rhoads served as Lt. Col. in Col. Jacob Weavers's
    battalion, 5th Battalion Berks County Militia in 1777 and was present at the
    battle of Brandywine and probably at the route in Paoli, serving on
    duty in the Great Valley afterwards. Matthias died in 1804, some 14 years
    after his wife Elizabeth Yoder. The siblings were then scattered to the
    environs of a neighboring county. Joseph Rhoads, the author's
    antecedent, was still a minor technically, at this time and Jacob Griesemer,
    his sister's husband was appointed guardian at his request. Joseph had
    followed, with the death of his father, several of his brothers and sisters to
    Northumberland county. Note also, that Matthias Rhoads had George Yoder
    and son John Yoder, "trusty friend" appointed as executors to his will dated
    1804.
    Joseph Rhoads was known locally as "the German Major" because
    he served in the War of 1812 and finally achieved the rank of Major with the
    local militia. Joseph was mentioned in the will of his grandfather John Yost
    Yoder which was probated April 13,1812 in Reading.
    The Yoder family history has touched that of the Rhoads family in
    many ways and we are the better for it with the inspiration of those rugged
    "Schweizers" and their travails and accomplishments cited lovingly in the
    Yoder newsletter for the benefit of all of us.
