B. IV, p. 50.
    Apparently the line between his land and that of his brother, Joseph, was the line between Marshfield and Duxbury.
    The will of Timothy Rogers of Marshfield, “Taylor,” d. Mar. 24, 1724/5, p. Aug. 5, 1728, mentions sons, Samuel and John; daughter, Bethiah Rogers, then unmarried and living with him; and daughters, Hannah Torrey, Eunice Witherel, Mary Carver, and Hannah Lapham; granddaughter, Judith Rogers, wife of Joseph Rogers ; son-in-law, William Torrey; and son, Timothy, to whom he gives the bulk of his property, and whom he makes executor of his will.
