Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/lg.2ADE/22.26.29.1.2.1 Message Board Post: My direct ancestor is a daughter of Peleg ROGERS and Mary Ellen STAFFORD: Nancy "Anna" ROGERS b:2/3/1812 Fayette Co., OH d:11/1895 Grayson Co., TX. She m. Aden BARRETT. You state that you have more info on this line so I won't write too much here. My line continues with their daughter Cynthia Ann BARRETT m. John L. DOUGHTY (s/o Maguire DOUGHTY/DOTY and Mary Ann GOODEN) Their daughter Mary Adalaide "Mame" DOUGHTY m. James Francis Fay (s/o Daniel Wolftone FAHY/FAHEY and Catherine "Kate" Mary MULLEN(S) ). Their daughter Mabel May FAY m. Albert Wayne ARMSTRONG (s/o George P. ARMSTRONG and Alice Elizabeth Nutick) and they were my paternal grandparents. I have a picture of Cynthia Ann Barrett DOUGHTY as a adult woman and pictured with her, seated, is her very old grandmother Mary Ellen STAFFORD ROGERS. My cousin Ruby Simonson-McNeill did most of the original research on the Rogers line. The time I have spent on this part of my family....I've spent working on the McGuire, Nutick, Doughty/Doty and Armstrong lines. But I do believe that I have information on Peleg ROGERS' brother Benjamin ROGERS that you mention in the 1820 Census where you believe Peleg ROGERS is living with him during that time: Benjamin ROGERS b. 1783 in NC. d. 23 Jul 1862, Jefferson Co., IN and is buried in the McHenry Cemetery, Milton, Jefferson, IN. He m. Rachel WALLACE b. 1790 in NC. d. 12 Apr 1852, Jefferson Co., IN and is buried in the same cemetery. Children that I have listed for Benjamin ROGERS and Rachel WALLACE are: 1. John ROGERS 2. Rachel ROGERS 3. Mariah ROGERS 4. Martha Ann ROGERS b: 1809 in Kentucky 5. Samuel ROGERS b: 1813 in Ohio 6. Benjamin ROGERS b: 1822 in Indiana Here is his will: Wills and Administrations Jefferson County, Indiana Rogers, Benjamin Sr. (Book A-248) Will Wr. 17 Apr. 1860. Rec. 5 Aug. 1862. Bed and bed clothes, to my son, John. My dau: Martha; son, Benjamin $75. Remaining to be divided equally between my children. Son, Samuel and my three children, Martha, Rachel and Mariah. He appears in the 1830, 1840, & 1850 Census for Jefferson Co., IN. But as you can see, his son Samuel was b. in OH in 1813 but he appears to have arrived in Indiana by 1822, his son Benjamin being b. that year and in Indiana. Many researchers related to this line seem to think that this ROGERS family came from Rhode Island to North Carolina. ~ Anna Kasper The contact email listed for me is old...please use: irish_maiden_aine@yahoo.com if you would like to contact me.
