'''Dale Evans Rogers''' (October 31, 1912 – February 7, 2001) was an [[United States|American]] [[actress]], [[singer]], and songwriter, the third and last wife of the singing [[cowboy]], [[Roy Rogers]].
The daughter of T. Hillman Smith and the former Bettie Sue Wood, Rogers was born ''Lucille Wood Smith''' in Uvalde, some eighty miles west of [[San Antonio]], [[Texas]],but her name was soon changed to '''Frances Octavia Smith'''. Long after she lived elsewhere, Evans Rogers visited her grandparents' family homestead in Uvalde. She recalled in 1996 that as a child she had slept on the since-removed back porch during hot summer nights and hearing nearby [[Mexican]] families singing in the dark. The property was placed on the real estate market in 2018, with an asking price is $149,500, but a buyer will need more money to bring the house up to standards. Or the property could be subdivided into eight lots that would sell for nearly $40,000 each. None of the original furnishings remain, and various owners altered the dwelling over the years.<ref name=rmarini>Richard A.
