  • Notes 
    • He may be the Jeremiah Rogers who had a son Benjamin "of Charlestown" who married Jemima Cass on 15 Apr 1739 in West Greenwich. I have tentatively placed Benjamin here as Jeremiah's son.

      Another son could be the Jeremiah Jr. referred to in the land evidence mentioned below. (See notes for Jeremiah born c 1711.)

      I have used the dates below in determining possible death dates for Jeremiah & Mary, with the assumption that these land records refer to this particular Jeremiah (but needs more research to confirm). Based on the deed of 24 Sep 1753, I also have made an assumption that Jeremiah's wife was Mary.

      The following notes are gleaned from land evidence:

      The Westerly records show that a Jeremiah Rogers sold a house and land there to William James of Portsmouth on 18 Apr 1720.

      He could be the Jeremiah Rogers identified as "of Richmond" in a deed dated 21 Aug 1750.

      Jeremiah Rogers "of Exeter" sold land to Isaac Rogers "of Exeter" on 25 Feb 1752; signed by Jeremiah Rogers Sr. and Jeremiah Rogers Jr.

      A Jeremiah Rogers was "of Exeter" on 24 Sep 1753.

      He could be the Jeremiah Rogers "of Exeter" who on 24 Sep 1753 signed a deed with his wife Mary.

      Jeremiah Rogers "of Exeter" sold land to Jeremiah Rogers "of Newport" on 22 Feb 1755.
