Sourcing for Mike Rogers' place of birth
[edit]The only source I can find for Mike Rogers' place of birth is his official website, which names "Livingston County". This is an odd way to refer to one's place of birth. I have never told someone what "county" I was born in. Furthermore, the following passage is problematic:
"Rogers was born in Livingston County, Michigan, the son of Joyce A. and John C. Rogers (source to congress.gov 2019)
This source is about a different Mike Rogers. Michigan's Mike Rogers was not even in Congress in 2019. So perhaps Joyce A. and John C. Rogers are the parents of Alabama's Mike Rogers? Whatever the case may be, this source doesn't make any mention of Michigan's Rogers.
We need to find a better source, or remove the congress.gov and replace it with a primary source (Rogers' website). Pecopteris (talk) 23:48, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
