[Subscribers will know that this surname is also the name of one of the 26 male passengers on the 1620 "Mayflower" who is known to have descendants living today.] That season of the year encumbered by myth is upon us again and it is good to know the difference between myth and fact. In his office in the Leiden American Pilgrim Museum in Leiden, Holland, former 1627 Plimoth Plantation curator and present director of this Leiden museum, the noted Pilgrim scholar Dr. Jeremy D. Bangs has done much to set things straight. He has written two major articles debunking centuries old myths: “Thanksgiving on the Net: Roast Bull with Cranberry Sauce” and “1621: A Historian Looks Anew at Thanksgiving,” the latter dealing with publications. Both of these articles may be read on the PA Mayflower Society’s Website www.Sail1620.org “Discover History” page (Featured Articles – browse all). Among other works of Dr. Bangs posted there are the first two chapters of his forthcoming book “Pilgrims, Leiden, and the Early Years of Plymouth Plantation.” You can visit his museum at http://www.pilgrimhall.org/LeidenMuseum.htm. Of course Leiden is where the Pilgrims settled in 1609 after fleeing persecution by the Church of England and from whence they departed to begin their 1620 voyage, via England, to North America. Actual Pilgrim artifacts may be seen in the on-line collections of this nation’s oldest museum in continuous use (since 1824), Pilgrim Hall in Plymouth, MA (http://www.pilgrimhall.org). Stacy B. C.

The Newport Rogers had sons who settled in eastern and central NC. Stan Rogers came from the eastern NC line and lives in Hahira, GA...5123 Griffin Dr. He has a lot of the same data that Clyde has that he got independently spending a week in RI. My line was in Wake and Granville Counties in central NC just w of Raleigh. Each generation moved a little farther west in NC looking for farmland. Mine were in Person Co (N or Roxboro, NC). 2 Rogers brothers married 2 Jackson sisters and one of these couples and their Charles Jackson moved to Albemarle Co, Va. NY and Ann Arbor, MI families trace to RI as well. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carol Rogers Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2007 12:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ROGERS] ROGERS in Rhode Island, New York, and Vermont Clyde, This e-mail has me confused as I have from this other researcher the children of Jeremiah Rogers, son of Thomas Rogers and Sarah Cole, as married to Mary (unknown surname). Jeremiah and Mary had children Benjamin, Jeremiah, Isaac, Thomas, and Hannah - as mentioned in the other e-mail to you. I have this Isaac married to Sarah Rose. Now are you saying that Isaac and Sarah had a son, Isaac, who married Rhoda Chase and this Isaac Jr. died in 1846 at Adams, Jefferson County, NY - but this is not a confirmed fact? I had to look Jefferson County up to see how close it was to Wayne County and/or Saratoga County. Quite awhile back, possibly a couple years ago, someone contacted me about a possible connection to their Jeremiah Rogers in one of the counties around Albany, perhaps Saratoga or Rensselaer. I'll have to see if I saved her e-mail. I suggested to her that she order some films of the towns she knew by census where he lived. That might be where one of the Jeremiah descendants migrated to. This would have been in the early 1800's, when I knew my Jeremiah was already established in Brandon, VT, so not the same. How did you happen to come up with Isaac being the supposed father of Isaac? I realize that fathers commonly name one of their sons after themselves, but in my case I'm not thinking that Jeremiah, born 1761, had a father named Jeremiah as he named his sons, Thomas and George. But I can see Jeremiah naming his son, Thomas, after a grandfather, perhaps, as fathers often do. But with the info I was given, Thomas Rogers, Jr., son of Thomas and Sarah nee Cole, had only two sons of eleven children, Peleg and Job, and both of them settled in North Carolina - which is where this other researcher went with his line, but not sure which one of these was his direct ancestor. He recently informed me, however, that some of Job's descendants went to Tennessee, while some of Peleg's descendants went to Georgia - others stayed in North Carolina, I guess. So that eliminates Thomas Rogers, Jr., as a possible direct ancestor. >From the films I took notes of, I'm going to check all the births in Newport around 1761 and see who the parents are. That might give me an idea what parents there might have been then of child bearing age. Then I will try to see if I can locate their entire family from wills. If a Jeremiah is listed, and I can't place him elsewhere, then that might be my man! I believe he is the one that married Fanny Hoxsie in 1883 in Newport. Only, that might be her name from a previous marriage, but by birth she might have been Fanny/Francis Clarke. That took me a while and a trip to Newport to figure that one out, thanks to a librarian at the historical society there. I appreciate your input on this as every little bit counts. When I find out certain people are already "claimed", I can cross them off the list of possibilities.

I am VERY interested! I've been working on my husband's ROGERS line of descendants from a Jeremiah Rogers who was born in Newport, Newport, Rhode Island, in 1761 to parents I've yet to confirm. He is in the 1790 census there and then left the state to what I believe was the Lyons, NY, area. I say this because he had two sons, Thomas and George, confirmed in probate records in VT. Thomas had children that are listed in Vermont as born in Lyons, NY. I've always wondered why the family traveled all way to upstate New York, then ended up in Vermont. Jeremiah lost his first wife somewhere along the line between Rhode Island and Vermont, and is found in Revolutionary War records leaving a pension to his widow, Abigail McHerd, about ten years or so after his recorded death in 1837 in Brandon. There is a marriage on Nov 1, 1807 in Springfield, Windsor, Vermont, of a Jeremiah Rogers of Brandon to Sybil Latham - which I've also wondered about as the only Jeremiah in Brandon at the time was this same one from Newport, Rhode Island. Jeremiah shows up in land records in Brandon, VT, in 1806, and then in census there in 1810 & 1820. Thomas didn't show up there until 1820 census with a line of children. Then apparently his first wife died and he married Leah Churchill for which that information has been listed on RootsWeb, and I understand there is a Churchill Family Tree record with such info as well. I haven't been able to find where George was in 1820, but he had a son born in 1821 that was listed on various records as having been born in Chester, Brandon, or Barnard. Then he was living next door to Thomas in Brandon in 1830. George had 6 children born between 1812 and 1824, all in Vermont. Even though I have an internet-listed birthdate for George M. on 29 May 1790 in Brandon, in the 1860 census he is listed in Bethel, VT, living with wife and son's family at age 72 and born in Rhode Island. In 1850 he was in Brandon and listed as born in Vermont, which might be where this internet source got the presumption that he was born in Brandon as he was living there in 1830 census as well. So I've speculated (which is a dangerous thing to do in genealogy, I realize)that Jeremiah and family were traveling from Rhode Island to upstate New York sometime around 1800 census as I've never been able to find him anywhere, so he might not have had an established residence at the time. Somewhere in the stacks of Rogers info I've collected, I have copies of vitals for Rogers living in the Lyons/Palmyra area, but I've never been able to find Thomas' children's birth records, nor have I ever found signs that they were definitely living in New York from any records there. What I have on Thomas through his first wife, Mary Ester Davis, is four children, first three born in Lyons, NY, and the youngest was Lewis C. Rogers born in Brandon, VT, in 1819. The one prior to him was Fanny Estey born in Lyons in 1818. So Thomas and family moved to Brandon somewhere between June, 1818, and August, 1819. The oldest son, Jeremiah (labeled "2nd" in VT records) was born in Lyons in 1814. Between Jeremiah 2nd and Fanny is a missing female born between 1815 and 1817, also presumed to have been born in New York as well, though living in Brandon for the 1820 census.

Clyde, Thanks so much for the leads on this. I will study your information over and see what I can find out. Having the names of specific towns really does help as I can search those newspapers and microfilmed records as well. I'm presuming there was something in those other town records that indicated the Rogers you found were originally from Newport. But shucks ... chuckle, chuckle ... I don't think I'll be able to hop on a plane to visit the Seattle, Washington, public library!!! But hopefully the St. Louis Library will supply comparable info. One question, however, as you mentioned the first Jeremiah with wife Mary who was born possibly in Newport and moved later to Charlestown. Then later you said Jeremiah and Mary moved to Exeter. So am I correct in thinking they might have married in Charlestown? >From the other researcher I have five children for Jeremiah and Mary, but in this order: Benjamin, abt 1715; Jeremiah, abt. 1719; Isaac, abt 1721; Thomas, abt 1723; and Hannah, abt 1730. You mentioned Isaac as being the oldest - but not having Mary's death date, perhaps Benjamin and Jeremiah were dead by then. Jeremiah was listed as born in Westerly, mg. to Patience Benjamin and Jemima nee Case also had 5 children: Caleb, Jeremiah, Benjamin, Sarah, and John. A year of marriage for Benjamin and Jemima was not listed, but Caleb was listed born 6 Mar 1738/39, whereas you have a year later, so that will give me something to recheck dates for, though I realize you said that your facts were by memory (great memory to recall all of that!!!). Caleb is listed with spouse, Patience Sweet. Jeremiah has same birthdate that you gave, but there was a note of him dying about 1761 in Canada, while fighting - possibly the French and Indian War.

So in a way, yes, I'm trying to compile info of the Newport Rogers (from the 1700's, that is) so that if ever I find Jeremiah's connections I won't have to backtrack on all the research I've already done. However, that is not my primary reason because if I had found the proof some other way, I really believe I'd be spending my time elsewhere. Interestingly, I have been able to find some indirect clues to relationships - such as business partners, etc. But unless I find one of them relating to Jeremiah, then all would be for waste, unless something I find helps someone else. But then, do I need a reason to read old newspapers? Why do the paid sites carry them if not to read? According to Vermont records, census, and Jeremiah's Revolutionary War record listed on Heritage Quest, he was born in Newport in 1761. There is a 1790 Newport, RI, census that matches him with two males at the age that his two sons, Thomas and George, would have been before showing up in Vermont records in the 1800's. Unless Jeremiah's parents just moved to Newport just prior to his birth, or he was born there with his parents living elsewhere (or born to an unwed mother), one of the males living in Newport in the mid 1700's might have been his father. Before he died, my father-in-law always said his Rogers' line was originally from England - something passed down through the generations, I guess. About two years ago or so, someone sent me a whole line of connecting Rogers families from Newport that trailed back to a James Rogers arriving in early 1600's. However, much of it went only so far with descendants, missing a generation or two in the early to mid 1700's.

Margarett ROGERS, b. 1813, Martin Co., NC was the daughter of Everett ROGERS, b. 1770, Martin Co., NC. Shortly after Margarett was born, Everett ROGERS, first wife unknown, and family moved into the Hardin Co., TN area which was then Indian lands. Hardin Co. was not formed until 1818. His known children were Armizza, Thomas H., Samuel Everett, Margarett, Henry, Elizabeth, and James Carroll. Margarett married Christopher Columbus Alexander, b. 1811, Wilson Co., TN in Hardin Co., TN, son of Ezekiel Alexander, Jr. and Mary Polly Cooper, about 1837. They had one child, Armissa/Armizza Fatame Alexander, b. TN. This family later moved to Texas to the Nacogdoches area. When Smith Co., TX was formed, they were living in that area. C. C. Alexander, wife Margarett, daughter Armissa, and father-in-law Everett Rogers are enumerated on the 1850 Smith Co, TX census. C. C. was the first County Clerk of Smith Co., TX. His brother-in-law, Samuel Everett Rogers was a County Commissioner. All of Everett Rogers' known children, with the exception of Armizza (+Jeremiah Harrison Pickens) who moved to Tippah Co., MS, moved to the Nacogdoches, Nacogdoches Co., TX area. Interestingly, Everett married #2 to Lydia Harrison Pickens, widow of Jonathan Pickens, Jr. of Hardin Co., TN. They also moved to Tippah Co., MS where they lived near her son, Jeremiah, and his daughter, Armizza, until Lydia's death in 1837. Sometime after that date, Everett made his way to TX to live nearby the rest of his Rogers children. Seeking contact with LOIS who posted information on ROGERS, ALEXANDER, HOGG families.

Hi, I am interested in the ongoing Giles Rogers thread, Topic 1 below. I am particularly excited by Sandra's Message 4 on Saturday. mentioning that Giles had a son named John who married someone named Mary. I was informed by some new-found cousins a number of years ago that my ancestor, Joseph Edward Rogers, had a sister named Elizabeth Lamb Rogers. Joseph came to Polk County, Texas from Davidson County, TN, in 1845. He had been preceded there by his sister Elizabeth. My cousins (descendants of Elizabeth) told me that all they knew about the ancestry of the siblings was that their parents lived in Virginia and were named John and Mary. I knew that would be a tough nut to crack, given the number of Johns (Rogers) and Marys (unknown surname) in Virginia (even in the late 18th century). This is the first instance of a John and Mary couple from Virginia in about the right time frame in years og monitoring the Rogers list, so I've got to ask if my names ring any bells. Thank you, Roger Moore Houston In a message dated 11/12/07 02:15:08 Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Today's Topics: 1. Re: Giles Rogers, d. 1794 Albemarle (Joan Horsley)

Hello Patti, Your Rogers line is the same family line that I've been told "my" Jeremiah most probably links to. However, as you well know, speculation without proof gets you nowhere with genealogy. Someone sent me the trail of descendants that he had from the "original" James Rogers that you mentioned and his wife, Mary. If the internet submissions are correct, in addition to what this other researcher sent, James was born in 1589 in England as a miller, while his wife, Mary Jorden, was born 1591 in England and died 1678. I'm not even bothering to find proof of that info right now because I've yet to link my Jeremiah to this family, but I've noticed that a number of internet submissions support that same information. Do you have 11 children for Thomas Rogers mg. to Sarah Cole? One of those was John B., and not to confuse him with a cousin John Jr. who was the son of John Sr./mg. Elizabeth - John Sr. being a brother of your Thomas. The reason I'm pointing this out is that I've been making notes along certain names in this "family tree" that was sent to me. John B. Rogers, son of Thomas and Sarah nee Cole, had 8 children, and I've found burial records at the Common Burial Ground cemetery that match parents and possibly four children. If I'm correct, having those death dates helps me determine who might be living in Newport during the period that these newspaper articles were published. Example is for John Rogers listed as Master for ship Charlotte: "The Newport Mercury, 04-19-1773, issue 763, pg. 3" Who might he be? John B. died and was buried in CBG in 1761. Then this research lists a John Rogers, son of Benjamin Rogers born abt 1715, son of Jeremiah and Mary, who was son of Thomas and Sarah Cole. Perhaps that was him? In the Common Burial Ground in Newport there is a John Rogers born about 1708 and died 10 Oct 1709, which I thought might be the son of John B. Rogers as there are also buried there a Capt James, Capt Jonathan, and William, which I'm thinking might be brothers to this infant, or sons of John B.. There's another brother, Thomas, listed in this research that doesn't have a burial in that cemetery, but note the death of a Thomas Rogers in "The Newport Mercury, 05-16-1774, issue 819, pg. 3", as one from Newport who died on the coast of Africa. Then there is mention of a Capt. William Rogers in "The Newport Mercury from Monday, Jul 7, to Monday, Jul 14, 1766, no. 410" on front page, which might be the same William, son of John B., OR possibly William, son of John Rogers and Sarah Lawton, who is son of John Rogers and Elizabeth, brother to your Thomas/Sarah Cole. Previous research has him listed born July 14, 1709, and I found him dying 1 Oct 1772 and buried Old Cemetery with obit in "The Newport Mercury, 10-05-1772, issue 735, page 3" listing 8 children. He's also listed as Captain William in Providence Gazette of Oct 3, 1772. His wife, Sarah, died 12 May 1776 in 53rd year and buried at Old Cemetery. She is listed as William's executrix of his will in "The Newport Mercury, 02-22-1773, issue 755, pg. 3" and "The Newport Mercury, 03-08-1773, issue 757, pg. 4". There is also a William listed as selling food from his shop in "The Newport Mercury, Mondays, Jun 6-13, 1768, issue 510, pg 1". However, I just noted that William Rogers with the shop is listed on "North side of the Parade", which is same location of the Capt. William listed in the first sentence of this paragraph. Then also noticed that the obit for William leaving 8 children which I think is for son of John Rogers and Sarah Lawton - and married to Sarah - was listed as a merchant. I need your input on this as to which William is which. I'm building this, using the basis of someone else's research. Though I only made note of a date of Jan 5-12, 1767, there is also a William Rogers listed as executor of an estate for Mrs. Elizabeth Wilson - for whatever that is worth. This same Sarah Rogers, I believe wife of William, is listed in an article "The Newport Mercury, Mondays, July 18-25, 1768, issue 516, pg. 3" having something to do with the estate of George Thomas - not sure of possible relationship. Then there is a William Rogers who broke into a shop "The Newport Mercury, Sept 21-28, 1767, issue 473, pg 3". Now William, son of John and Sarah, from previous research has a brother, James, born in 1714. That might be Capt James born about 1714 who died 22 Aug 1776 and buried in Common Burial Ground in Newport. There's an article on a James from Newport, listed as a Mariner, in "The Newport Mercury, Jul27 - Aug3, 1767, issue 465, pg 3". The Newport Mercury, June 13-20, 1768, issue 511, pg. 2 I also have a NEHGS membership, which is great to have, especially when living so far from Boston! That's the site I've been using for these articles. All these were notes I previously made, but if you want links, I'm not sure how they will transfer such as for Jonathan who might have been the same son of John B. mg. to Jane Brown: http://docs.newsbank.com/s/HistArchive/ahnpdoc/EANX/107027E6AFB61C80/0F418C8 09CE5EA70 Lastly, before I stop for the day, in "The Newport Mercury, Aug 21, 1784, issue 1195, pg 3" is a short article selling a boat by Newport merchants, Joseph and Daniel Rogers. I have those two names listed as brother and sons of your Thomas and Sarah nee Cole. Also found a tombstone in Newport of a Daniel Rogers in 1789. Probably not the same as these men as if so, they would have been pretty old by then. But possibly they might have been grandchildren of Thomas. I did see a marriage listed in "The Newport Mercury, Apr 21, 1781, issue 1021, pg. 3" for Patty Hazzard, daughter of George Hazzard of Newport, to Joseph Rogers." Let me know if this helps.

In regard to the following topic, is there any indication of contact or relationship with a Rogers family including Joseph Edward Rogers and (sibling) Elizabeth Lamb Rogers of Davidson County, TN? Both siblings came to Polk County, Texas, Joseph in 1845, and his sister some time previously. Joseph, at least, had an association with the McFaddin/McFadden family of TN and Texas through his marriage to Margaret Ann McFaddin, daughter of David McFaddin 1764 - 1835. Joseph and family moved apparently to be in proximity to the family of the now-deceased(?) Margaret Ann's sibling, James McFaddin (d. 1845) in Sabine Pass, Jefferson County, Texas, in about 1850. I am descended from one of their children, Captain William Edward Rogers of Sabine Pass and Beaumont, Texas. Response from anyone for whom these names ring bells would be appreciated. Roger G.

I did have quite a lot of info on the various JEREMIAHS but had to clean out my files so do not have much now. What I do have is from memory. The first JEREMIAH was a son of THOMAS & SARAH. He was probably born ca. 1680 possibly in Newport. He later lived in Charlestown. His wife was MARY. They had at least: ISAAC, THOMAS, JEREMIAH & BENJAMIN. I think BENJAMIN had a son JEREMIAH too. One JEREMIAH moved to Newport. I did lots of research into records for Westerly,Charlestown,Richmond & Exeter. The first JEREMIAH & MARY his wife moved to EXETER, where they probably died. IN the town records at MARY's death ISAAC was named as her administrator he being the oldest son. These records are on micro-film at the LDS. There are also the Rhode Island Archives at the Seattle,Washington Public Library. JEREMIAH ROGERS md. PATIENCE ( CARR ?). BENJAMIN s/o JEREMIAH md.
