Hello
Jonathan Rogers is one of my ancestors. He was my grandfather's cousin and has always been someone we as a family have remembered, from here the UK. I never met him as he died before I was born but I did meet his wife Elizabeth when I was a child and she visited the UK.
Last year I went to Vancouver to find the places that I knew he had been associated with - one of those was of course the Jonathan Rogers Park. I love it! We visited one Sunday morning and found the allotment area just like you show it here in the photographs!
Your website was one of the sources I used to help me to identify just where the Park was - so thank you for that.
I now have a photograph of the Park on my kitchen wall to remind me of it all

Jonathan Rogers is my great, great uncle. My Grandmother was his niece and my father, Jonathan Donald is named after him. Jonathan Rogers came from a farm called Plas-Onn in the beautiful Ceiriog Valley in North Wales. Plas-Onn is a few minutes from where my father has farmed for over fifty years. I have read and heard much about Jonathan Rogers and I would love to go out to Vancouver to see what he achieved over there.
