Background

Biography

The only record of Hannah is the fact she was named in the will of her husband, dated 2 January 1677/8. As such, we cannot be certain whether Hannah was his only wife, and whether she was the mother to all/some/none of his children. mtDNA testing should be able to tell us whether all of the daughters had the same mother, but even then, we would not be certain whether Hannah was their mother. In any case, this profile is for the mother of the children (assuming they all had the same mother, whether or not it was Hannah).

The first child of Joseph Rogers was born Plymouth 16 Aug 1633. Joseph had eight children[1]; four sons and four daughters (Sarah [died in infancy], Elizabeth, Mary & Hannah)

Second Generation

Elizabeth Rogers[2] was probably born at Duxbury on 29 Sep 1639. She died at Eastham about 1678. She married at Eastham 9 Jan 1660/1 Jonathan Higgins. They had five children; four sons and daughter Hannah.


Mary Rogers[3] was probably born at Duxbury on 22 Sep 1644. She was living at Barnstable as late as 19 Apr 1718. She married at Barnstable 10 Aug 1664 John Finney/Phinney. They had thirteen children; eight sons and five daughters (Mary, Mercy, Rebecca, Hannah & Elizabeth)


Hannah Rogers[4] was probably born at Eastham 8 Aug 1652. She was living as late as 18 Oct 1690. She married at Eastham about 1679 Jonathan Higgins (who was the widow of her sister, Elizabeth). They had five children; one son and four daughters (Elizabeth, Mary, Rebecca & Sarah)
