When you are doing research in Jonathan Rosser's family that there are two Pleasant Rossers that you have to deal with regardless of how you spell the name.I long ago learned (1960 or so) to realize that Jonathan had a son Pleasant with no further initials.Jonathan's son Thomas Oglesbyalso had a son Pleasant, and in all of the records I have seen for him he has been designated as Pleasant B. Rosser. This is the line that I am descended from.In all of our family notes there is no name designation for the letter B.It seems to be just a way of differentiaing him from his uncle. Whenever I see Pleasant, I NEVERasaume that it s Pleasant B., and so onthe other way around.
