Silas Rogers, son of William came to Keokuk, IA in the late 1800s and see are still here. The Rogers name as you see on my tree is John William Rogers SR. and Jr. Then my husband is John Welsh( his mothers maiden name ) Can't find out much about Silas but the John's have been in business working for different companies. My husband has an Ann for a sister so the family names seem to be popular. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
