• Notes

  Jesse H. Rogers and his first wife, Sinah Mahala Crutchfield Rogers are buried in a grove of trees near Silk Hope, Chatham County, North Carolina. They were the parents of 8 children, Levi Rogers(1835-1904), Esther A. Rogers (1839), Sarah Jane Rogers(1842-1913), Samuel A. Rogers(1845-1917), Thomas B. Rogers(1847-1889), Duncan M. Rogers(1850-1922), Laura Fannie Rogers (1852-1898) and Delia D Rogers (1856-1923). After Mahala's death 20 Sep 1866, Jesse married Frances Whitt (1829-1909)26 Sep 1867. Jesse's son Levi Rogers' wife Julia Ann McMath Burke Rogers died in October 1875 leaving four young children. Mattie Mary Rogers (1866-1935), Sophronia Rogers (1869-1939), Jesse Augustus Rogers (1871-1948) and Oliver Newton Rogers (1874-1959). For a time 14 year old Mattie took care of her siblings and kept house for her father. But by 1880 the four siblings were living with Jesse H Rogers and Frances. Their father, Levi Rogers, married for the second time in 1881 and had a large second family 8 children). Jesse's four grandchildren appear to have lived with Jesse and his second wife until they married. All did so except Jesse Augustus who lived with Frances until she died in 1909. Since Jesse H. Rogers was a farmer of some means who owned a large farm in Chatham County, it is likely that his widow Frances lived on this farm for some time after Jesse H's death. If Jesse H. Rogers had a will it has not been found and the disposition of his farm and holdings is unknown. Jesse H's grandson Jesse Augustus appears to have remained for time on Jesse H's farm. After Frances died Jesse Augustus lived for some time with his sister Sophronia (1910 Census) but is listed in the next two census (1920 & 1930) records as "farming" in Hadley, Chatham County, North Carolina. Jesse's other grandchildren married - Mattie Mary Rogers married George H. Beavers; Sophronia Rogers married Leonidias Lee Perry; and Oliver Newton Rogers married Minnie Edna Spinks.
