FROM PERRY COUNTY AL
I am seeking information on John L. Rogers born in 1861 in Perry County AL and his sister Sarah V. (don't know the married name) born in 1858.
At least three of ther siblings went to Lamar County TX circa 1881: Felix Cromwell Rogers, Mary Elizabeth (Molly) Garrison, and Martha Bodessie (Decia) Miller.
For certain, the oldest, William Andrew Rogers died in Perry County AL (Radfordville Beat) 24 Jun 1910.
John L. and Sarah V. may also have stayed in Perry County AL.
The information I have:
1860 Census:For household #45, according to Elia Griffin Davis (enumerator), is the head of household, John W. Rogers (39 years of age), his wife = Nancy H. Rogers (37); the children are William A.
