L. F. ROGERS (HAMPSHIRE TOWNSHIP 1879) IS MY GREAT-GREAT GRANDFATHER. I DESCEND IN THE FOLLOWING ORDER: LEWIS ROGERS & SARAH BOYNTON'S SON IS BENJAMIN ROGERS AND WIFE MARY ? BEGAT KITTY L. ROGERS WHO MARRIED CHARLES TIETJENS THEIR SON, MY FATHER BENJAMIN H. TIETJENS MARRIED VIOLA JACKSON. THIS SPANS LEWIS COMING TO CLINTON COUNTY IN 1845 TO THE PRESENT. I NOW LIVE ABOUT 5 MILES FROM THE ORIGINAL HOMESTEAD, WHICH WAS IN HAMPSHIRE TWP., IN ELK RIVER TWP. WE ARE PROBABLY ONE OF THE FAMILIES WITH THE LONGEST TENURE IN CLINTON COUNTY.
WOULD APPRECIATE ANY INFO AVAILABLE ON HENRY TIETJENS OF HAMPSHIRE TWP. HE WAS A BLACKSMITH AT THE "6-MILE" NORTH OF CLINTON AND WAS MY GREAT-GRANDFATHER.
ADDITIONAL ROGERS HISTORY:CHECK THE 10-26-38 EDITION OF THE HERALD AND THE ARTICLE WRITTEN BY MY GRANDMOTHER KITTY TIETJENS, CORRESPONDENT FOR THE HERALD. THE PUBLICATION DATE IS ALSO MY BIRTH DATE: OCTOBER 26, 1938
