If we go back through these messages, there is one (can't find it
right now) where Dan referred to a memorial on the Find A Grave web
site. It has a photo of Henry's grave stone, the name William Henry
"Henry" Rogers, gives his date and place of birth, death in 1904 in
Springfield, Lane Co., OR. It identifies his wife, and four
children. It also has a picture of a post card sent to Gertie
Brabham in Eugene (one of the children of Henry and Elizabeth) from
"Father and Mother". The individual who created the memorial also
has memorials for two of Henry & Elizabeth's children, with
photos of obituaries, Elizabeth's death certificate, and a post card
that Gertie wrote to her mother. The email address of the person
who created the memorial is available on the Find A Grave page, and
it seems to me that if she has that much family information, she may
have more to offer if Dan were to contact her. For anyone on this
list who wants to take a look, the address for Henry's memorial is:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=34106056">http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=34106056</a><br>
<br>
Also, with the information from the National Archives regarding
Henry's Civil War service, which includes his location of death,
combined with his widow's application for a pension in September,
1904, the issue of when he died, and where he is buried should be
resolved. Seems to me that the only thing still lacking is Dan's
question as to what company manufactured Henry's gravestone.<br>

That's true about the name but he spoke of seeing something in a
book in a store of a Henry Rogers died 1903 so thought possibly
this might be the one that was listed in the book.<br>

<div id="yiv1181668476">
<div>Sue is correct. It is a Civil
War military grave stone, and
reads CO. F, 44 WIS. INF<br>
<br>
I don't know what you have on
Henry Rogers other than what is
posted on your web site, but here
is what I have found:<br>
From Ancestry.com --<br>
Henry Rogers, resident of St
Lawrence, Wisconsin enlisted in
the Union army on 15 Oct 1864.
Rank at enlistment was Corporal,
state served Wisconsin. He
enlisted in Company F, Wisconsin
44th Infantry Regiment, was
mustered out on 03 Jun 1865, died
in Lane County, OR. (Another
record, not so complete, says
rank in & rank out were both
private). <br>
<br>
The grave marker was (apparently)
provided by the Federal
Government. It is the same as
many in the Jacksonville Cemetery
that I photographed, and then
researched the individuals. There
is a record on Ancestry that lists
headsones provided for deceased
Union Civil War veterans,
including the company that made
the marker, but it only includes
the years 1879-1903. Since your
ancestor died (according to the
Find A Grave record) in 1904, he
would have missed the years
covered by the Ancestry record.
In your note on your web site, you
state that the 1905 Springfield
census lists Elizabeth as a widow,
so death date of 1904 is probably
correct. The record posted on
Ancestry is from the National
Archives, so you might be able to
learn more information there.<br>
<br>
Also from Ancestry, from the
National Archives: On August 4
(could be 21 -- hard to read),
1890, Henry Rogers filed for
invalid's pension (Application No.
932645, Certiricate 673293) in
Minnesota. Service was F. 44.
Wis. Inf. On Sep 6, 1904
Elizabeth M Rogers filed for
widow's pension (Application No.
813103, Certificate No. 583574) in
Oregon.<br>
<br>
Hope this gives you some answers
(?), and further sources to
contact.<br>
