In a family diary entry dated 24 August 1864 there is a mention of Yankees capturing 11 citizens near Upperville, Virginia. Among them was a GenlRodgers of Middleburg." Though not an uncommon name, among visitors to the family home was a Mrs. Rogers [no first name], onece in the company of Vin" which may have been a child's name. Sorry, pretty skimpy data but it may fit with other information you gather.
