Old Family Pictures Wanted for Book

 

March 20, 2011 I received an email from a lost cousin Linda Haynes Hardy who is decended from James Harrison Rogers she added details for more of her branch of the family and included a wonderful missing link in the family tree "By the way,family lore is that Mary Ann Allen was the daughter of Ethan Allen. David Rogers had a gun that belonged to Ethan and it was donated to the historical museum in Riverfalls, Wisconsin". Everything I could find on Mary Ann Allen pointed to Ethan, story of his gun originating from his grandson David Rogers convinces me. Anybody wanyt to debunk that can check the DNA.

 

March 4, 2008:  I have completed adding Nora Foley's list of Miller descendants and am now working on the book version of this web site.  If you have photos of descendants or other historical family pictures  that you would like included in the book please email them me at Rogers@LOOKinHERE.net be sure an include information on who is in the photo and and approximate place and date of the picture.  It is also a last opportunity to add any corrections, descendants and family stories for the book.

July 15, 2007 I have moved to Bonanza, Ourigan (as Robert Rogers spelled it) I am working on getting as many descendants as possible listed to include in a book version of this web site. The book will also contain family and tombstone photos, not on the web site.
