• Notes

  THE BROWN GENEALOGY, Boston, The Everett Press Company 1907, by CyrusHenry Brown, page 55. In his youth Daniel Rodman was engaged in farming, but during thewinter months he gave his time to learning the processes of woolenmanufacture. In 1843 he purchased his estate of "Mooresfield," where hesettled for life, and carried on the manufacture of kersey in his twomills, one at Mooresfield and one at Glenrock. He at Mooresfield, in hisquiet and secluded but beautiful home, Mr. Rodman spent the last fortysix years of his life. He owed his success in business to his industry,perseverance, and economy, coupled with these two precepts: "What littleyou do, do well." "Be careful in making business engagements; be morecareful in fulfilling them."
