THE FREMONT COUNTY HERALD. Febraury 26, 1920. "Mrs Dollie E. Rogers".--Mrs. Dollie E. Rogers was born in Franklin county, Kentucky, October 12, 1847 and was the daughter of Thomas and Martha Jenkins. With her parents she came to this community in 1861 and was married to Dell Rogers on September 2, 1869, at her home. To them were born six children, all of whom are living: Ernest of Percival, Fred of Logan, Mrs. James Elkins of Aurora, Nebraska; Carrie at home, Clark of Percival and Roberta Bailey of Edin, Idaho.

Last September Mr. and Mrs. Rogers celebrated their golden wedding at the family home and received the earnest and hearty congratulations of a host of friends and the pleasure of Mrs.Rogers in this event will not soon be forgotten by those who were present.

About 40 years ago Mrs. Rogers united with the Baptist church and of that body has been an earnest member ever since. She has been in failing health for about 10 years and for the past six years has been afflicted with blindness. Her patience in this affliction has been very touching.

Besides the husband and the children named there are left 10 grand children and one great grandchild, two brothers and four sisters to mourn her loss.

Death came as a relief from long suffering on Monday evening at 8:30 at the age of 72 years 4 months and 14 days.
