Death*

David Rogers died on 17 May 1908 in South Freetown, Prince County, Prince Edward Island, Canada, at age 76; Obituary: "We regret to announce the death of David Rogers of Freetown, which occurred on Sunday night last. Mr. Rogers was one of the most prominent men in Prince County and had reached the allotted years, and the evening of his life was being spent in quiet. He had not been well for some months, so that the news of his death was not unexpected. He was born in Carmarthen, South Wales, December 28th, 1831, and came with his father, Jonah Rogers, and other members of the family to this Province in 1839 and settled in Bedeque. With his father David learned the trade of a blacksmith and worked on the farm in the day and the shop at night. After becoming proficient he went to the United States, but was there only a short time when his father’s illness and death brought him home to take charge of the shop and farm – he being the eldest son.

In a few years, the younger brothers having grown up, David moved to Freetown, buying a farm previously owned by Fred Picketts. There, after marrying, he opened a blacksmith shop. Those were the days of hard work, clearing land and working in the shop late and early. He was soon in comfortable circumstances. The farm and mill property of the late Geo. Wright, known as the Dunk River Mills, was in the market in 1869. Mr. Rogers bought the fine property where he has since resided, working the grist, saw and carding mills, as well as the large farm of two hundred and sixty acres. Some two years ago he sold the mills and part of the farm, as the health of his two sons compelled them to seek a warmer climate.

Mr. Rogers was an active and faithful member of the Methodist Church in which he served as local minister, steward, trustee and member of the Quarterly Board. In politics he was an Independent, preferring to vote for the best man rather than party. During his whole life he was a consistent temperance worker and occupied the position of Grand Worthy Patriarch of the Grand Division of the Sons of Temperance in 1883-84. He was thrice married – first to Mary Wright of Bedeque, second to Louisa Wright of Searltown, and third to Martha Wright of Charlottetown, who survives him. Six children are living: Picton in British Columbia; Henry in Calgary; Mrs. H. W. Birch, Alberta; Mrs. L. U. Fowler, Bedeque; Mrs. S. R. Cairns and Mrs. J. S. Walker, Freetown. Benj. Rogers, Sr., Charlottetown, and Joseph Rogers of Bedeque are brothers; Mrs. Henry Farquharson, Southport; and Mrs. Thomas Frizzle, Summerside, are sisters of the deceased."^7,3
