Mrs. Catherine Rogers, daughter of Henry and Margaret Lever [LeBar], was born in Steuben County, N. Y., December 1, 1834, and died in Richburg, N. Y., January 24, 1919.
She came to Richburg when young. At the age of fourteen she confessed Christ, was baptized and united with the Seventh Day Baptist Church of that place. During her long life she remained a loyal and earnest member.
November 6, 1852 she was united in marriage to Deacon Ethel Rogers, Richburg. They had two children, Oliver, of Cuba, and Mrs. Mary Moses, of Richburg, who survive. Since the death of her husband five years ago, Mrs. Rogers lived with her daughter.
She was confined to her bed most of the time for several years, but though physically weakened her faith in Christ and her interest in the church were steadfast to the end. She spoke frequently and hopefully of her eternal home to which she wanted to go when it pleased her Father to take her. Services were conducted at the home of the daughter by her pastor, Rev. E. F. Loofboro.
