 WILLIAM L. ROGERS was born in Ontario County, New York. When he was but an 
infant his father came West with his family and settled on a farm in Washtenaw 
County. From there he removed to Tuscola County in 1850, and cleared up a farm. 
The son was then but seventeen years of age, and about four years afterward he 
bought and cleared up a farm for himself in Juniata Township, where he remained 
for a number of years. In 1870 he came to Caro. In earlier days he followed the 
trade of a carpenter and joiner and he continued at it until 1878, when he 
embarked in the real estate business, and is now (1883) still following that 
line of trade. Has held the offices of township clerk and member of the village 
council and is now assessor and director of schools for the village. Married and 
has a family of four children.
