General Notes: Husband - Patrick Rodgers
He was born in Donegal township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where, on his father's farm, he was trained to the manifold duties pertaining to agricultural pursuits, while his education was secured at the subscription schools of his day. At the early age of sixteen the care of a large farm fell on him, thus putting an end to his opportunities of attending school any longer.
After his first marriage he continued on the home farm, engaged in general agriculture and stock raising, until 1870, when he removed to the old Cracraft farm, situated near Dunsfort, in Donegal township, on Buffalo creek, where he then resided, and later retired, the farm being operated by others. This property he had purchased some years before. In his political affiliations he was a stanch Republican, formerly a Whig, and has held numerous township offices pressed upon him by appreciative friends. In religious sentiment he was a member of and liberal contributor toward the Dutch Fork Disciple Church.
