Batavia Daily News, October 1904
Mrs. N. M. Rogers

After having been confined to her bed over two years, Mrs. Nathaniel M. Rogers
died Friday morning at 7 o'clock at the home of her son Fred C. Rogers, on St.
Mark's street.  The funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock,
Rev. Pierre Cushing officiating.  Interment was at Machpelah cemetery.

Mary Jane Webb was born in Turin, Lewis county, July 22, 1828, where she lived
until twenty years later, when she was married to Mr. Rogers.  They moved to
Stafford soon afterwards and in 1851 came to Le Roy, where she had since
resided.  Mr. Rogers died in July 1894, aged 76 years also.  Both were
attendants at St. Mark's church for many years, first when the building stood 
in the old cemetery on Church street.

Mrs. Rogers was a woman who lived for her family, giving them her whole time
and attention, fulfilling the mission of a wife in every particular.  She 
was the second oldest in a family of seven and the second one in the family to 
die.  She leaves three sisters, viz: Mrs. Sarah Mathers, of Boonville; Mrs. 
Marion Noble of Kentland, Ind.; Miss Maria Webb, of Utica; also two half-
sisters, Misses Helen and Julia Coventry, of Turin.  Two sons also survive; 
Charles B. Rogers and Fred C. Rogers, of Le Roy.
