William Findlay Rogers (March 1, 1820 – December 16, 1899) was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from New York. Rogers is probably best remembered today as the mayor and parks commissioner who hired Frederick Law Olmsted to design Buffalo's park system and its showpiece, Delaware Park. Rogers also supported the foundation of the Buffalo Zoo. ==Early years== William Findlay Rogers (son of Thomas Jones Rogers) was born in Forks Township, Pennsylvania, near the borough of Easton, Pennsylvania. He moved with his parents to Philadelphia, where he attended the common schools. Rogers returned to Easton and entered a printing office in 1832. Two years later, he returned to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and continued working at his trade.
