Mr. Rogers is a native of New Brunswick, Canada, where he was born on March 12, 1846. His parents, Anthony and Margaret (Sweet) Rogers, were New Englanders by nativity,and the subject's great-grandfather was an eye-witness to the throwing over-board of the tea in Boston harbor, being a very young man at the time. The subject's parents came from New Brunswick to Manistee, Michigan, in 1856, and remained there until ltheir deaths, his occurring at the age of seventy-six years and the mother's at the age of eighty-six. The subject was the fourth born of their ten children and was but eight years old at the time of the family removal to Michigan. He has been from his sixteenth year entaged in the lumbering business an dis considered an expert in this line. In 1883 Mr. Rogers left Manistee and went to Mecosta county, this state, and four years later went to Clare county, this state, where he remained for nine years. In 1896 he came to Missaukee county and setled in Norwich township, where he has since resided with the exception of four years in Lake City. He is the owner of eighty acres of good land in section 26, Norwich township, forty acres of which he has improved and on which he grows abundant crops of all the products suited to the soil and climate. He is progressive in his methods and has achieved a distinctive success in his operations. In the fall of 1901 Mr. Rogers was elected to the respoonsible office of treasurer of Missaukee county, and so satisfactory were his services that in the fall of 1903 he was re-elected to the positioin. He also held the office of supervisor of Norwich township for two terms.
