This might be a good source to find brothers or cousins.  My M. W. Rodgers(Rogers) 
and Wiley Rodgers(Rogers) were brothers.  I haven’t found a connection to the D. R. 
Rodgers yet.

According to my Great, Great Grandmother’s correspondence with Washington 
concerning her widow’s pension M. W. Rodgers (Rogers) enrolled in this company on 
February 10, 1836.  He was mustered out with his company at Garvey’s Ferry, E. F. 
May 15, 1836.  This was from the Treasury Department, 2nd Auditors Office, 
Washington, July 26, 1893
