Rhoda Ann Graves was born in Walpole, Cheshire, New Hampshire, the daughter of Anson Graves and Asenath Slade, and married Lyman Stearns on September 8, 1834. For their wedding tour they traveled to Ohio to visit with Lyman's brother, John Cooledge Stearns, and his family in Copley, Ohio. In 1848, they moved to Copley, Ohio, and then in 1856 to Parma, Ohio. Rhoda and Lyman established a farm that still stands today as the Stearns Homestead in Parma, Ohio. It is a 48 acre "museum farm" open to the public to enjoy, in the midst of the Cleveland suburbs.
