Notes:
1. Land records of York Co., Penn. states that Andrew Rodgers received his land in Newberry twp. of York Co. Pa. the 27th of Sep 1743. 2. Quaker Records of Newark Monthly Meeting reported Jan. 1. 1735, that Rebecca Garretson "has married out of ye unity of friends by a Priest, therefore we appoint Sarah Grave and Esther Wilson to speak to her concerning ye same and make report to ye next meeting." 3. Film: 389399, Newark Monthly Meeting (Quaker) reported that "The Friends that were appointed to speak to Rebekah Garretson, now Rogers, report they were with her and she appeared here and gave some lines to condemn her disorderly actions, which was received and ordered to be published in Centre first days meeting." Though it was the custom to excommunicate members for marrying out of the faith, Rebecca apparantly was not, as she was requesting permission three years later to move to the Sadsbury meeting, when they moved to York Co., Penn. 4. There are several other children that probably belong to this family, such as Laban, Joseph, Mary, Jasper, James, William, and possibly John. These people are acting as witnesses to the marriage of Ann Rodgers, dau. of Andrew at her Quaker wedding.
