The line of descent to James Rogers of New London is at this time uncertain. Research of Charlie Rogers shows the line of descent through Bernard Rogers, son of John and Adrian (Pratt) Rogers, who was born in 1543 at Wittenburg, Saxony-Anhault, Deutschland through his eldest son, Thomas Matthew Rogers who was born in 1565. Bernard Rogers married Mary about 1564 at Scotland, moved from Scotland to England and died in 1583. Barnard and Mary Rogers children were:
1. Thomas Matthew Rogers born 1565, married about 1586, Miss McMurds
2. Jiles [Giles] Rogers
3. Samuel Rogers -- was father of:
a. Robert Rogers who married Francis Russell –
Robert and Francis Rogers were parents of:
i. Hugh Rogers
Early research believed Thomas Matthew Rogers to be the father of Thomas Rogers of the Mayflower and James of New London, Connecticut to be the son of Thomas of the Mayflower. Recent research and DNA tests have proven that Thomas of the Mayflower was not a son of descent of John, the Smithfield Martyr and that James of New London, Connecticut is not the son of Thomas of the Mayflower.

Further research needs to be done to verify the family line of James Rogers who came to America in 1635 on the Ship Increase who is thought to have been born 2 February 1615 in Stratford on Avon, Warwickshire, England and who died 6 February 1687 in New London, Connecticut. It is my prayer that this document of the research of so many will assist in the quest for the parents of our Rogers line and those other maternal direct lines that connect to it.
