The Rhodes mausoleum contains the internments of at least four people: Albert James Rhodes who lived from 1864 to 1921; his wife Harriet who lived from 1872 to 1944; Carl Williams who lived from 1889 to 1980; and his wife Leta Williams who lived from 1890 to 1975. My assumption is that the Williams couple, either Carl or Leta, was a nephew/neice to Harriett since Harriet's maiden name is Williams.
James and Harriet Rhodes had no children and were prominent citizens of Seattle who owned Rhodes Department Store, a successful retail store in downtown Seattle for many years. I believe the department store was demolished many years ago but the mansion they built still stands today. There's a wonderful blog website that highlights this couple's lives.
