(Apologies for any London list members who've seen this already.) I have a ROGERS family who are causing me a major headache. In 1881 Caroline ROGERS, widow age 30, is listed with William George ROGERS, son age 10, and Edith Ann ROGERS, dau age 8. They were living in Deptford St Nicholas. I found Edith's baptism in August 1874 giving her parents as William George and Caroline ROGERS and a sister, Lydia Caroline who unfortunately died the following year. No trace of William jnr's though. I got the birth certs for William jnr and Edith, plus Lydia's death cert. As expected Edith and Lydia were sisters. Their mother's maiden name was LEWIS. William jnr, however, was NOT their brother. His parents were Henry and Caroline (nee BARBER). I've been able to find them in the 1871 census, nor have I been able to find his baptism which should have been in St Paul's Deptford where the family lived. I'm still looking for the marriage of William George ROGERS and Caroline LEWIS. Without that I'm stuck for the next step back. There's a likely death for William snr in Greenwich in 1880 but the registers are not available on Ancestry as yet. I found a possible match for Caroline LEWIS in Greenwich RD in 1849, dau of George and Hannah LEWIS. She was in the 1851 and 1861 censuses but then seems to disappear. However, without the marriage cert, there's no way of knowing if this is the right person or not. If William George and Edith Ann were not brother and sister, who was the Caroline? Caroline LEWIS or Caroline BARBER? Were Henry and William George brothers? Any help in finding the ROGERS/LEWIS marriage would be much appreciated. -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton and Greinton, SOM Asst OPC for Ashcott and Shapwick, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk
