The Rogers Family

Robert Rogers sent me the information on Ernestine Rogers Temple used in the previous post and this additional information on his family.

The father of Robert Holland and Achilles Moorman Rogers was Robert Henderson Rogers. There has been a Robert Rogers for six generations. While Holland didn't name his son Robert, Achilles named his Robert Grant. Robert's middle name is Houck; his son is Robert Clinton, and his grandson is Robert Wade. From Robert's father through his grandson, the tradition is to use the mother's maiden name for the middle name.

Robert along with his wife, Joyce, served as pastor to a Baptist Church in Rota, Spain.
