Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogical and Personal History of Western Pennsylvania, Vol. 1 The present work, "Genealogical and Personal History of Western Pennsylvania," presents in the aggregate an amount and variety of genealogical and personal information and portraiture unequalled by any kindred publication. No similar work concerning Western Pennsylvania has ever before been presented, and it contains a vast amount of ancestral history never before printed. The object, clearly defined and well digested, is to present in concise form the history of Western Pennsylvania Families of the Colonial Days. There are numerous voluminous histories of the State, making it unnecessary in this work to even outline its annals. What has been published, however, relates principally to civic life. The amplification necessary to complete the picture, old and nowaday, is what is supplied by these Genealogical and Personal Memoirs. In other words, while.others have written of the times, the province of this work is as a chronicle of the people who have made this magnificent region what it is. Unique in conception and treatment, this work constitutes one of the most original and permanently valuable contributions ever made to the social history of an American community. In it are arrayed in a lucid and dignified manner all the available facts regarding the ancestry, personal careers and matrimonial alliances of those who, in each succeeding generation, have been accorded leading positions in social, professional and business life. It is not based upon, neither does it minister to, aristocratic prejudices and assumptions. On the contrary, its fundamental ideas are thoroughly American and democratic. The work everywhere conveys the lesson that distinction has been gained only by honorable public service, or by usefulness in private station, and that the development and prosperity of the region of which it treats have been dependent upon the character of its citizens, and in the stimulus which they have given to commerce, to industry, to the arts and sciences, to education and religion - to all that is comprised in the highest civilization of the present day - through a continual progressive development.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogical and Personal History of Western Pennsylvania, Vol. 2 Son of parents who were natives of Pennsylvania, vvil rodgers liam Adams Rodgers, son of James Rodgers, was born near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, October 18, 1816. Upon attaining man's estate he was captain of a canal boat on the Ohio river, then became connected with the iron and steel manufacturing industry. He moved to Parker, Pennsylvania, where his parents are buried, and he became manager of a furnace, later accepting a similar position near Canton, Ohio, in the employ of Peter Graff. Soon after the death of Mr. Graff, he moved to Monongahela City, Washington county, Pennsylvania, and for a time engaged in coal dealing, later managing several furnaces, one in Paulding county, Ohio, another in Latonia, Ohio. One of his business connections was with the Rochester Plow Factory, of Rochester, Pennsylvania, of which he was president, and in 1862 he moved to Bellevue, Pennsylvania, pur chasing eight acres of land. He became the owner of considerable more property in this place, and was a man of prominence, one of the streets of Bellevue bearing his name, and there he lived until his death, in De cember, 1872. He was a man well favored by nature with pleasing personal attributes, possessing many friends, and by those who knew him only in business relations he was rightly adjudged a man of sound and upright principle, from which deviation was an unknown thing. He was a Re publican in political faith, and although reared in the Methodist Episcopal faith, in later life turned to the Catholic religion. He was prominently identified with the Masonic order.
