     1 Jul 1982- visit to the National Archives in Bayonne revealed in the 1850 Census the existance of this man, his family, and the fact that he was an illiterate laborer born in Ireland. The fact that records exist on him gave impetus to further family research. The fact that this Census was the first to list the names and ages of all in the household, and tells us much about the Rogers family, despite the fact that only the father is listed as having been born in Ireland. Family stories relate that they all came from Ireland, and son Thomas's death certificate states he was 6 years old when he emigrated from Ireland.
27 Aug 1850 Federal Census 253-484 15th Ward, reel 552.
Michael Rogers 40 M Laborer b. Ireland cannot read or write

Ann 15 F b. NY
James 13 M b. NY
John 11 M b. NY
* Thomas 9 M b. NY
Charles 7 M b. NY

There was also a notation that James, John, Thomas and Charles attended school in the past year. (Their parents no doubt wanted them to have the advantages Michael didn't have.)
The NYC Directory gives the following information, but so far it has not been definitely proven that they are our Rogers family, although Michael was a laborer, and carmen and coalmen would come under that category.

1854-55 Rogers, Michael carman 229 Sullivan

1859-60 Rogers, Michael coal h.r. 233 Sullivan-
This is surely our family, because the same year the Grahams
lived at 228 Sullivan, and Eliza and Thomas were neighbors. The 1860 Census also confirms this address for the family.

BIOGRAPHY: When his grandaughter Elizabeth Callanan married Francis Lavelle, a man who had worked for Rogers made a marble topped table as a wedding gift. She had it in her apartment until her death, when it went to 450 Oradell Ave.

BIOGRAPHY: It is possible that the patterned marble is Irish - Black marble comes from Galway, green from Connemara, and rose from Cork.

BIOGRAPHY: 19 June 1987- From a conversation with Joanne Cleary, his great-grandaughter:
Joanne had been in correspondence with one of his daughters some time earlier and the daughter reminisced about her father Thomas. Evidently he was a real terror when he indulged in binge drinking, and his wife Elizabeth was terrified of him in that condition.¹
