Rogers, Samuel William Smith (1849/50-1881), Irish barrister

Rogers was the second son of Professor John Rogers, DD, of the Assembly's College (later the Union Theological College), Belfast. He attended Queen's University, Belfast, from which he obtained an MA degree, and was admitted at the Inner Temple, London, on 19 November 1877. He died on 25 September 1881, at his father's home, College Park, Belfast.

(The Belfast Newsletter and the index to the civil registration of deaths state that Rogers was 31 when he died, but the online database of admissions records that he was nineteen when admitted at the Inner Temple. These statements are obviously incompatible.)
