James Rodman, son of Hugh Rodman Sr. born in 1785 came to Shelby County, Kentucky about 1813 and settled about five miles east of Salem in Washington County, Indiana. He was born in Pennsylvania and was married to Elizabeth Burton. She evidently died before he did as she is not named in his will dated May 19, 1852. Children of James and Elizabeth as follows:

They had one son, John Rodman of the U. S. Navy. Thomas J. Rodman was inventor of the Rodman Gun, used by our country during the Civil War and many years afterwards as well as being used in other countries. (Note: This was actually Thomas Jackson Rodman, born 31 July 1816. There is confusion in some records as to his middle name. A letter from his daughter to the administration at West Point clarified the point.)
3. James Harvey Rodman, married March 9, 1845, Washington County, Indiana to Rachel J. Norris. He was an extensive land owner.
Children: Albert A. Rodman (foster son) married first Cora B. Snyder who died July 8, 1885. One son born to them died August 7, 1885, age one month, 18 days; both buried in Conoway Cemetery, Franklin Township. Albert A. married second time to Hanna Payne; children: Harvey, Glenn, Verne,and Etta.
