Looking for living descendants of this family. I joined the National Society
United States Daughters of 1812 with George Rogers as my ancestor. Would
like to locate his grave and mark it with a USD 1812 marker.
GEORGE ROGERS was born about 1783 in Georgetown, Scott Co,
Kentucky. He married Nancy West Scott on 20 April 1812 in
Frankfort, Franklin Co, KY. George and family arrived in Owen
County, Indiana in 1836, where George died 15 Oct 1873 and was
buried in Jennings Township. Three children born in KY: Melissa
1812 (married West P. Oakly & Jacob Huffman), John 1814 (married
Lucinda "Lucy" Ann Fortune & Anna "Annie" A. Constable), Lucinda
B. 1817 (married Samuel Beaman). Another child, Charity, was born
1820 in Jefferson County, Indiana (married Gilbert Trent). George
served as a private for one month at the end of the War of 1812
under Captain Lyddall Bacon, COL Francisco's Regiment of Kentucky
Militia Volunteers.
