Biographical Summary
Joseph Rogers was born in 1602/3 in
Watford, Northampton, England. He and his family came to Leiden,
Holland, where they are first recorded in 1618. By 1620, the
family had sold its house, and Joseph came with father Thomas on the
Mayflower to Plymouth. His mother Alice, brother John, and
sisters Elizabeth and Margaret remained behind in Leiden.
Joseph was about 17 years old when he
made the voyage on the Mayflower with his father. His
father Thomas died sometime the first winter at Plymouth. Joseph
appears to have resided in the Bradford household for around ten years.
He married about 1632, and his first child Sarah was born on 6 August
1633. He moved from Plymouth to Duxbury around 1638, and lived
there for a number of years, before moving to Eastham around 1646, and
resided in Sandwich for a few years around 1650 before returning to
Eastham. He died in Eastham in January 1677/8; in his will he
names his wife Hannah, the only record found that names his wife.
