"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 60, No 35, p 557, Aug. 29, 1904.
Perdilla Z. Rogers was born at Berea, W. Va., March 24, 1851, and died at Farina, Ill., Aug. 19, 1904, aged 53 years, 4 months and 25 days.
She was the daughter of Otho P. and Nancy Zinn, who embraced the Sabbath and became prominent in the early history of the Pine Grove Seventh-day Baptist Church. May 31, 1857, Mr. Zinn passed away and in 1866 the family removed to Farina, where they have been identified with the work till the present time. Feb. 19 1870, Mrs. Rogers was baptized by Eld. C. M. Lewis and became a member of the church. She was married to W. H. Rogers, Dec. 25, 1872. Their home has been blessed with six children, five of whom are living. From childhood she has lived the strenuous life. Whatever her hand has found to do she has done with her might. Faithful to her home, she ever found time to minister to the sick and care for the needy. No good cause ever appealed to her in vain. She was deeply interested in the Denominational work as well as the home church and was ever a liberal contributor to all our enterprises. The community mourns a citizen of great worth; the church a sister - a tower of strength. The home a loving wife and mother whose value is beyond computation. "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them.
