Born on June 3, 1760, at Branford, Connecticut, Samuel N. Rogers Sr. served several terms of enlistment with Captain Peck's Company, Col. Roger Eno's Regiment of the Connecticut militia from 1777 to 1781. Following the war, he moved to New York state, and in 1839 he moved to Walworth County, Wisconsin. In 1848, at an advanced age, he accompanied his son, Samuel N. Rogers Jr., to Winnebago County, settling in the Town of Winchester. He died at the age of ninety-two in 1852 and is buried in this cemetery.

Three veterans of the War of 1812, John D. Clarke, Mayhew D. Mott, and Jacob A. Raught, are also buried here in the Winchester Township Cemetery.
