I presume you have access to the book and have read the material presented, but for those who may not - and my copy does not have an index (perhaps some later edition does), JOHN ROGERS is treated in Chapter XVI, "Persecutions in England During the reign of Queen Mary." Pg 209 (in my copy) "John Rogers, Vicar of St. Sepulcher's, and Reader of St. Paul's, London." While there is no genealogical details, no mention of family, John Rogers 'was educated at Cambridge,' and there are some personal names and some locations that might give way to research. Perhaps you have already accessed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adriana_of_Antwerp which does give biographical information: John Rogers (c. 1500 - 4 February 1555) was a minister, Bible translator and commentator, and the first English Protestant martyr under Mary I of England. He was born in the parish of Aston, near Birmingham, and was educated at Pembroke Hall, Cambridge University, where he graduated B.A. in 1526. In 1532, he was rector of Holy Trinity, Queenhithe, London, and in 1534, he went to Antwerp as chaplain to the English merchants of the Company of the Merchant Adventurers. ...... more ..... Good luck! I hope you find the connection! What a lucky gal, your wife, that you're doing the research for her.
