I haven't found much so far online about 8x great grandfather Thomas Rogers so far. This, from William Hopple Edwards, is the longest summation of Thomas' life I have yet seen:
Thomas Rogers (6-22); b. May 29, 1638; d. Jun. 16, 1678;m. Dog. 13, 1965.
Thomas Rogers, son of Lt. Joseph and Hannah (----) Rogers was born in the 3rd month (old style) 29th day, lé38, and was baptized at Eastham, Mass. He married Dec. 13, 1665, Elizabeth Snow, daughter of Hon. Nicholas and Constance (Hopkins) Snow, who was born about 1610 and died Jun. 16, 1678. He died Jun. 16, l678 at Eastham.
The children of Thomas and Elizabeth (Snow) Rogers, according to Leon Clark Hills - Cape Cod Series – Vol II - 1911, born at Eastham, were:
l. Elizabeth, b. Oct. 8, 1666; m. ----- Higgins.
2. Joseph, b. Feb. 1, 1667; m. Prudence -----.
3. Hannah (5-ll) ; b. Mar. 20, 1669; m. Amaziah Harding.
lo. Thomas; b. Mar. 6, 1670; d. Mar. 16, lé70-l.
5. Thomas; b. May 6, 1672; m. Sarah Treat.
6. Eleazer, b. Nov. 3, 1673; m. Ruhmah Willis.
7. Nathaniel, b. Jan. l8, 1675.
pp279-280

I do wonder about the death date for Thomas and his wife Elizabeth Snow (Rogers) being the same. Did they actually die on the same date, and if they did, what were the circumstances?
I am descended from their son Eleazer.
