Hi Jerry,
I have a few additions/corrections for the Benjamin Rogers "The Immigrant" page
of the website that concerns Pleasant M. ROGERS, my husband's 2nd great
grandfather.
He married Sarah Ann BEELER on 12 April 1831 in Claiborne Co., Tenn. No one in
our family, that I know of, has ever heard of Pleasant being married before
that.
I do know that p.3051 of the Dallas/Lorens book says that Anna Hayrus is
Pleasant's wife, but I think that is a mistake. Annie HAYNES was married to his
brother Jessie LaFayette Rogers.

Pleasant M. was my husband's 2nd great grandfather. We have researched him for
over 10 years and have all kinds of data. He was born in 1809 Claiborne Co. and
married there in 1831 to Sarah Ann BEELER. I think you are correct about her
parents.
Pleasant M. was a Methodist minister and Neb. State Representative. Pleasant
died in Pawnee Co., Neb. in 1874 and is buried in the Rogers Cem. out in the
country. He and Sarah had 7 children: Harvey R. b1832 Claiborne Co., Marquis de
Lafayette (my husband's great grandfather) b1833 Anderson Co., Lewis Marshall
b1837, Sarah Jane b1838, Mary Emily "Polly" b1840, Pleasant David b1844, and
Anna Powell b1848.
The family left Anderson Co. for Fremont Co., Iowa in 1854. In 1855, they moved
to St. Derron, Richardson Co., Neb. The next year they settled in Pawnee co. I
have land records, censeses, county histories, cem. records, etc.

I recently
was involved in a discussion with Jerry regarding Pleasant M Rogers. While
reading the Rev. War Pension Application for my 5XGreatGrandfather, Augustus
Wilson ,Anderson CO TN. I came upon a statement that Pleasant had made along
with Wm Sharp, on behalf of Augustus Wilson......dated 27 January 1848.
" Me Pleasant M Rogers a clergyman residing in the county of Anderson and State
of Tennesse and Willaim Sharp residing in the state an a county officer hair do
somely certify that we are well aquainted with Augustus Wilson who has
remembered and received to the above statement that we believe him to be eighty
nine years of age that he is respected and believed in the neighborhod where he
resides to have been a soldier in the Revoltuion and Indian War and that we
concur in that opinion. "
Sworn and subscribed to this 27th day of January 1848

This places Pleasant M Rogers in Anderson CO TN in 1848. We know that Pleasant
M Rogers married Sarah Beeler (b. Oct 11 1808. in TN) married April 12 1831.
According to my data she is the daughter to Peter Beeler and Barbara Petree. If
my information is correct: Sarah was a sister to Winnie Beeler that married
Stephen Cawood. So she would have been an Aunt to Barbara B and Annie Cawood
wives of Hugh Lawson White Rogers and Henderson Rogers, sons of Major David.
Pleasant M Rogers was their brother and also a son of Maj David.
Anderson CO TN: In the 1850 census 16th Subdivision Roll 869 Page 60. He is
listed as a farmer - All of this family was born in TN:
Pleasant M Rogers age 41
Sarah wife age 42
Marquis De Layfette 16 farmer
Harvey 18 farmer
Lewis 13
Sarah Jane 11
Polly 9
David 6
Anna 2
Further data I found online shows that by 1856 Pleasant had left Tn and is
listed in Pawnee County, Nebraska
