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>

Darleen provided good info in her post

Re: [or-roots] Headstone Laural hill

<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>
