JAMES W. ROGERS, M.D.
Vol. 3, p. 957

Numbered among the able and popular physicians and surgeons of the
younger generation in the City of Tulsa, Doctor ROGERS has here been
engaged in the practice of his profession since 1913, and his success
stands in evidence alike of his technical ability and his earnest
application. At Ozark, the judicial center of Christian County,
Missouri, Dr. James Winston Rogers was born on the 9th of October,
1889, and he is a son of John and Ivy (SOUTHWICK) Rogers, the former
of whom was born in Webster County, Missouri, in 1853, and the latter
of whom was born at Titusville, Crawford County, Pennsylvania in
1863. The Doctor was the fourth in order of birth of five children,
all sons; Herbert N. is assistant cashier in a bank at Ozark,
Missouri; Robert E. is a civil engineer by profession and reside at
Tulsa; and Charles is a reporter on the staff of the Tulsa World.

John Rogers was reared and educated in his native state and became
eventually on of the prominent and influential citizens of Christian
County, Missouri, where he has served as cashier of the Christian
County Bank, at Ozark, since 1875.

After completing the curriculum of the high school at Ozark Doctor
Rogers pursued a course in Drury Academy, at Springfield, Missouri,
and in 1911 he was graduated in the University of Oklahoma, with the
degree of Bachelor of Science. In preparation for the exacting
profession of his choice he entered the medical department of the
great University of Michigan, at Ann Arbor, in which institution he
was graduated as a member of the class of 1913 and from which he
received the degree of Doctor of Medicine. Shortly after his
graduation he established his residence at Tulsa, and in this city
his effective and earnest services in his profession have enabled him
to build up an excellent practice, which is constantly expanding in
scope. He is a popular and appreciative member of the Tulsa County
Medical Society, besides being identified with the Oklahoma State
Medical Association and the American Medical Association. Liberal and
progressive as a citizen, he takes a lively interest in public
affairs of a local order and his political allegiance is given to the
democratic party.

On the 28th of September, 1913, was solemnized the marriage of
Doctor Rogers to Miss Frances DORCHESTER, who was born and reared in
Oklahoma, and their one child is a winsome little daughter, Frances
May.
