Rogers.-The Rogers family, in Hillsboro, is a very extensive family, taken in connection with the Rogers in the Fork and Mullins region, whence they all sprang; there is, perhaps, not a more extensive family in the county. Dew Rogers, a way back in the twenties, went from the Fork over into what is now called Hillsboro, having married over there, a Miss Mary Barfield; he bought land and went to work; he was a very energetic, persevering and frugal man; made money, bought other lands, negroes, &c., and raised children; the children reached the number of sixteen or nineteen, mostly sons ; the names of some of them, as remembered, was Zany, Jesse, Henry, Ebenezer, Dew, Barfield and others, and lastly, our esteemed and worthy fellow-citizen, Captain Robert H. Rogers-the youngest son ; some of them are yet living, and it may be supposed they are keeping up the name and perpetuating it to the second, third and fourth generations. ;
