Biography

Feraby Rogers was a United Empire Loyalist.
UEL Status:Undetermined
Date: Undated

Notes for Fereby Alexander: Some Rodgers researchers believe she was the daughter of John Alexander and Margaret Elizabeth Alden, but dates are proving problematic.

From an old rootsweb post: https://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/alexander/12169/ I am seeking the ancestry of both Ferreby Alexander and her husband, Joseph Rogers, who married in the mid 1700's possibly in Virginia or maybe Nova Scotia. I have been told that Ferreby's parents were John Alexander and Margaret Elizabeth Alden, but have no proof. Thanks.

Reply - I was told that Ferreby and Joseph married possibly in St. Augustine. They were originally from North Carolina I believe and then fled to the British St. Augustine then to Nova Scotia.[1]
I have also heard that Ferreby's parents are named John Alexander and Margaret Elizabeth Alden, though I do not know the source of this information.
