 In the winter of 1868-69, William E. Rogers, Albert Molitor and Frederick Denny Larke came to the area to lumber. Mr. Molitor built a cabin, a dock and a mill on the shore, just to the north, on Lake Huron, and that was the start of Rogers City. It was named for William E. Rogers, owner of the land on which the village was laid out by his partner, Albert Molitor. It was given a post office as Rogers' Mills on September 23, 1870, the name was changed to Rogers City in January 1872, the to Rogers on January 22, 1895, and then back again to Rogers City on January 25, 1928. Incorporated as a village in 1877 and as a city in 1944. Rogers City is located on the Lake Huron coastline and is the county seat for Presque Isle County. Rogers City is home to the largest limestone quarry in the world. It’s limestone processing plant made Rogers City one of the major ports on the Great Lakes. The marina comes alive in the summer as sail boaters visit the community. Several seasonal “nautical theme” gift shops, restaurants and resorts attract tourists to the area. P. H. Hoeft State Park provides accommodation for campers.
