His son Abraham was born in that village, and learned the tailor's trade, which he followed throughout his residence in this county. He served as alderman of Jersey Shore for many years, and was elected sheriff of the county in 1853. After his term expired he engaged in lumbering on Pine creek, whence he removed to Girard, Crawford county, Kansas, in 1867, and still resides in that place.

His early life was spent on his father's farm, in Huntington, Luzerne county, and his education was received in the common schools. In 1851 he purchased the saw mill of J. and J. Callahan, situated about fifty rods from where the iron bridge now crosses Little Pine creek, which was destroyed by the flood of 1889. He also bought at the same time 937 acres of timber land in partnership with George Wor- ral. They settled upon the land and were engaged in the lumber business for a number of years. Mr. Rogers carried on the manufacturing of lumber until the flood heretofore mentioned, since which time he has been farming and getting out lumber and saw logs for the market.

In his religious views Mr. Rogers is a Baptist; he is one of the enter- prising citizens and oldest living lumber operators of his township, and enjoys the respect and confidence of those who know him.
