Thanks to all who are trying to help. Some additional information:
I have the obit of both John and Matilda. One curious but not too unusual
item; John's son and daughter (Peter & Barbara) both married Wagners,
(Martha and William).
Also, I believe that this family is somehow related to John Rodgers and
Sons, Baltimore Fire Engine manufacturers in the mid 1800's. I have nothing
concrete to base this on except that, at one time, they lived next door to
each other.
I do not believe my Rodgers are related to the Commodore John Rodgers
family.

Hello! Do you already have his obit from the Baltimore Sun -- Jan 19, 1883?
One useful bit of information is that the funeral took place from his
son-in-law's home William H. Wagner.

I haven't sent a query in a long time so..........
Looking for the parents or siblings of John R. Rodgers, b. c.1808 in Fells
Point, died 1/18/1883 in Baltimore. 1880 census says his father was from
Ireland and his mother from Germany. Was a fisherman. Married Matilda Ann
???? Children: Peter, Barbara, William, John Jr., Andrew J., Rachael &
George W. Lived all his life in Fells Point.
Also looking for the marriage of John and Matilda which should have been
between 1825 and 1835.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
