| Post subject: | Manuel/Rogers family |
Hi My name is Wayne Rodgers and I have been doing a family tree on the Rogers for the past year. I have come across a road block in my research and looking for some help. My Great Great Grandmother was Priscilla Morris from Lower Island Cove. She was married to John Manuel on Dec 9, 1869. She and John had 2 children before John passed away. She later married my Great Great Grandfather Alfred Lewis Rogers. The 2 children she had with John Manuel were John James Manuel, born on Dec. 8, 1872 Elisa Manuel dates unknown If anyone has info on either John James or Elisa, please let me know Thank you Wayne |

Thank You Jill for this information. I was stuck with no were to go with the 2 children that my Great Great Grandmother had. Now I have to track down Harold. I have heard your name before when talking to some of my family members. I would like to thank you for the great work you have done on my family tree. Not only has your work guided me to where I came from, but also connected me to family members that I didn't know before. I would like to get in contact with you and compare notes sometime. Wayne Rodgers |
