  • Notes 
    • Early Life
      Robert Rogers was baptised on the 18 Nov 1571 at Everton in Nottinghamshire, the son of Hugh Rogers and Elizabeth Portington.

      Family Life
      Roger married2 Elizabeth Sandford on the 1st November 1597. They had the following known children:

      1. George, b. 1598, who married Isabel Pinckney, with issue, and died. 16563. Founder of the Netherthorpe Rogers dynasty4
      2. Mary, b. 1600, who married John Owtram
      3. Elizabeth, b. 1601, who married Robert Widdington/Wethington of Hawkesleyin 1628
      4. Pelusia/Pelatia, b. 1602, who married Christopher Slater of Barlborough
      5. Portington, b. 1603, no issue
      6. John, b. 1605
      7. Hercy, b. 1606, no issue
      8. Robert, b. 1608, no issue
      9. Gilbert, 1610
      10. Debora, 1612
      11. Abigail, b. ?, who married Ralph Marshall of Thedlethorpe in Lincolnshire
      12. Ruth, b. 1615 who married Anthony Gilby of Everton in Nottinghamshire

      From the will of Elizabeth we identify the following children who were still alive in 1650:
      - George
      - Ruth, married Anthony Gilby
      - ___, married Robert Widdington (probably Elizabeth)
      - ___, married Raphe Marshall (Abigail)
      - ___, married ___ Slater (Pelatia)

      It's possible that the son George is the person for whom there is a marriage record with Elizabeth Newcomb in Nottingham in 1621 (but they had no children, evidently).

      Death
      There's a burial record for a Robert Rogers, Esq, of Everton, for 3rd January 1636, which feels like it would be the right person, though not 100% confident.

      Footnotes
      [1] The timing is perfect and Hugh had a number of other children around the same time so I feel this is the correct attribution. In addition, Hunter's South Yorkshire on page 311 (vol. 1) shows a Rogers pedigree also having Robert of this page being the son of Hugh of Everton.
      [2] Familiae Minorum Gentium, Joseph Hunter, Volume 4, London (1896); Gilby, pages 1227-1230; see page 1228
      [3] His will (dated 21 November 1565, proved 21 November 1566) mentions the following people:
      - Daughter Dorothy[? very hard to read]
      - Daughter Mary
      - Brother (in-law) Leonard Pinckney
      - Nephew William Pinckney
      - Sister (in-law) Francis Pinckney
      - Cousin Elizabeth Frobisher
      - Brother and sister Marshall (i.e. his sister Abigail and her husband Ralph)
      - His sister Gilby (i.e. Ruth)
      - His wife Isabel
      - His son Francis
