From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Rehoboth
     broad places. (1.) A well in Gerar dug by Isaac (Gen. 26:22),
     supposed to be in Wady er-Ruheibeh, about 20 miles south of
     Beersheba.
     
       (2.) An ancient city on the Euphrates (Gen. 36:37; 1 Chr.


     1:48), "Rehoboth by the river."
     
       (3.) Named among the cities of Asshur (Gen. 10:11). Probably,
     however, the words "rehoboth'ir" are to be translated as in the
     Vulgate and the margin of A.V., "the streets of the city," or
     rather "the public square of the city", i.e., of Nineveh.
