The Rogerses, long tied to Maynard and Windham, reflect a life of service and steady labor from Civil War enlistments on the blockade and Gulf fleets to forty years with the American Powder Co. They raised four children, two of whom achieved notable positions in publishing and journalism, while two others married and started families. Now elderly and in good health, they enjoy quiet days at their Parker Street home with visits from relatives and friends.
