Ludean, Do you happen to have a ELIZABETH RODGERS, with a son named Willi R.? I have Elizabeth (Rodgers, I think) b. about 1821 in SC. She is in the 1880 census of Walker Co, AL. Eastern Div. - 39 yrs.old married to John Austin, with 9 children. At the end of the list is Wili R. Rodgers 22 yrs. old. I'm guessing that she was married to a Rodgers before marrying John Austin and brought one child (Willi) with her. The first 2 Austin children were born in MS. and the family moved back to MS. when she died. Any connections with your male Rodgers? Pat patwhalon@aol.com

Pat, I do have an Elizabeth Rodgers, but that is her married name. I was told that she was Elizabeth Sanders who married John W. Rodgers, but unknown where. John was said to be from South Carolina. He was born in 1803, don't know when Elizabeth was born. They married in 1824. They had a son, William J. Rodgers, which is my line. They also had other children named Alfred A., Mary Jane, Saphronie, Hugh M., Sarah A. They are a hard line for me to find, but I did find out some info in Pontotoc County earlier this month. Just can't go back as far as to know about John and Elizabeth. Sorry.
