James Charles Rodgers, an American singer-songwriter and musician, was born on September 8, 1897, and passed away on May 26, 1933.
Who is Jimmie Rodgers wife Mary Biggerstaff?
Jimmie was married to Mary Louise Biggerstaff. There isn’t much information about Mary Biggerstaff hence making it difficult for us to share with the general public.
Although paperwork Rodgers signed later in life stated his birthplace as Geiger, Alabama, the residence of his paternal grandparents, it is customary to list Rodgers’ birthplace as Meridian, Mississippi.
But historians who have looked into the circumstances around that document, such as Nolan Porterfield and Barry Mazor, continue to claim that he was actually born in Pine Springs, Mississippi, which is north of Meridian.
The youngest of three kids, Rodgers’ mother passed away when he was around six or seven years old, and he spent the following few years living with various relatives in southeast Mississippi and southwest Alabama, close to Geiger.
