I haven't had any luck finding the following family after the 1861 census except for Alfred and Charles. Perhaps they moved to London as Father - Edmund Rogers died in London and buried at Mentmore in 1867. Hoping someone may be able to help to find - Henry Rogers BP 1843 Mentmore Edmund Rogers BP 1847 Mentmore John Rogers BP 1849 Mentmore and Mother - Sarah BP 1807 Mentmore. regards, Margaret.

Thanks Lizdb for taking the time to look into this for me. An explanation on the 1871 census at Ledburn you have found. Ellen Rogers, G.Dau at Redborough Farm House is Alfred Rogers and Selina (nee Varney)'s dau. Alfred is Edmund's son. Hare and Hounds Inn - Mary Ann Sayell is dau of Charles Beale Rogers - brother of Edmund. she is niece of Edmund's. Also there is Matilda- she is dau of John Hedges Rogers - who is son of Charles Beal Rogers. Phoebe Rogers is also a dau of Charles Beal Rogers. (3) who's wife is Elizabeth - This is Charles Rogers's wife - another of our Rogers Family (4) John ( which should be Jehu) and Louisa and family . Jehu is another brother of Edmund. It is a big family- It looks like Edmund and his family have moved away. I have Edmund's death - 10.12.1867 aged 60 yrs of London buried in Mentmore Church yard. regards, Margaret.

Hi Margaret, Found Edmund and his mother, Sarah !  Not in London, but in Nebraska! I could not believe it at first, but further investigation has me convinced. I think a daughter named Edith Ashby Rogers clinches it. Birth dates fit for both Edmund and Sarah (71 in 1880 Census) and a descendant somehow has an idea that Edmund was born in Buckinghamshire. Edmund's wife, Ann Mills was also born in England, but apparently emigrated with her parents and married Edmund in Otoe Co., Nebraska, 2 Aug. 1871. You can find the family in the 1880 US Census, free on the familysearch website. Edmund has been transcribed as Edmond and just put England for birth country, no county.
Still wondering why Edmund took his mother with him when he went off to homestead in Nebraska. Seems a bit odd as she would have been about 60.
You have at least two American cousins looking for information on various message boards and mailing lists. I'll give you directions to those in a PM.
Birth and death dates given by one of the descendants: Edmund Rogers 11 July 1846 - 20 Nov. 1916 Ann Rogers (Mills) 27 Aug. 1844 - 13 Aug 1902 both died and are buried in Palmyra, Otoe Co., Nebraska Apparently there is a tombstone with dates, no exact place of birth, just England.
Children of Edmund Rogers and Ann Mills :
Nellie Rogers no details Albert James Rogers b. abt 1872 Ne. Sarah Rogers b. 27 Mar. 1873, Ne. Arthur Edmund Rogers b. abt. 1876, Ne. Alice Louise Rogers b. abt. 1878, Ne. Edith Ashby Rogers b. abt. 1880, Ne.
Have not tried to find the other two brothers, yet. I think this is enough excitement for one day.
Cheers, Carmela

Hi Carmela, That is just amazing what you have found. Thank you so much for taking the trouble to find this info. It is 11 pm here in NZ so will digest this over night and will pm you tomorrow. My GG Grandfather was Joseph - Edmund's brother. Until then, regards, Margaret.
