Jim. The Rogers in Ky could be a connection.My John K. Rogers was originaly from Ky. He later moved to Missouri where he married Capt. Becknell's first child, Mary Jane Becknell. He came to TX with the group that came with Becknell in 1835. He was in the Red River Blues militia that Becknell commanded in the Texas war for Inependence, for wich he recieved a headright. I would like to study this possibility more. Thanks Jim.
