Edward Rogers1

b. circa 1805, d. after 1860
     Edward Rogers was born circa 1805.1 He was the son of Anthony Rogers and Lydia Ledden.1 Edward Rogers died after 1860.1

Edward, who did not marry, was a member of the household of his brother Anthony for most of his life. He was a lumberman who served in several responsible parish offices over a period of more than twenty years. He was a surveyor of lumber, a member of the North West Boom Committee in 1829, an overseer of the poor, and a trustee of schools. In 1836, in what would appear to have been an ugly quarrel over tax monies, he and his brother Robert were arrested for "grand larceny," and he and Robert, and Alexander Ledden were charged with having assaulted Charles Dolan, the tax collector. Little would seem to have come of this affair, however, and Edward was soon again entrusted with public duties. He left the parish in 1849, as did other members of the famly. In 1850 he was head of the household of Margaret, the widow of Charles McPartlin, in Orono, Maine. On the Miramichi, she had lived not far from the Rogers family, and she had taken her departure at around the same time. It is not known how long he stayed in Orono, but in 1860, he was head of the household in which his brother Anthony Rogers and his famly were living in Brown township, Manistee County, Michigan. 1
