MILLS RODGERS was born in 1864 (ish) in Prattville. He married MAMIE (1880? - 1968) and had the following children : LUELLA [Hunter] born in Prattville in 1927 and later married a Tom Smith and lived in Cincinnati, OH. Amanda [Wyatt] Lizzie May [Jeffrey] Lottie Bell [Green] Calvin Rodgers Buddy Rodgers Mill's parents were, as best as I can figure from the census, DANIEL RODGERS , born 1818 in North Carolina and WINNIE (or MINNIE) RODGERS born in 1824 in Alabama. In 1880, Winnie was widowed , living with her sons Mills and Howard and her married daughter Unice (Eunice) Hall. Winnie listed as her father's place of birth as "Africa" and her mother's as "South Carolina". Does anyone have this family in their research? Should I try to connect this family with a Prattville slave owner from North Carolina named MILLS ROGERS? How do I do this, other than trying to match ages and sex of Daniel and Winnie with the 1860 & 1850 Slave Schedules? Thank you,
