Last Modified: Jan 4, 2004 additional info: There might be another Rodgers daughter married to a Caldwell ....we have an artical written by J L Caldwell of Amerillo, TX about Recollections of Wilcox Co, 1840 to 1855 and he states that his grandfather was Eri Rodgers, and mentions the 3 sisters Malinda, Elizabeth and Narcissa. He states that Walter D Boyd of Wilcox Co, is his cousin since Walter is the son of William F and Malinda Rodgers Boyd..... I am also researching the Lee family of Perry Co. Mary Polly Lee married to Andrew Woods, son of Thomas Woods and Lorena Byers Woods. I have most of the info on the Lee family going back to VA......if you connect with them let me know....
