Sarah Rose (1817-1886).
My 3rd great-grandmother.
Rose is a common surname in Norfolk, which is where my branch of the family come from. The first of the Roses to join the family tree was Sarah, who married William Stoliday/Stolliday in 1835.
Sarah was born in 1817 to farmer Robert Rose and his wife Hannah Holsworth (see below). She was baptised on 7 September that year at All Saints Church in Salhouse, the village they called home for much of their lives and which relied on agriculture for its prosperity. Sarah married William Stoliday, who came from the nearby village of Rackheath, on 31 March 1835 at All Saints. They settled in Salhouse and raised a large family, Sarah going through at least 12 pregnancies and William working mainly as an agricultural labourer, sometimes as a carter.
Sarah died in 1886 and was buried at All Saints in Salhouse on 4 July. William lived well into his 90s and died in 1903. See details of William’s life and the couple’s family.
Robert Rose (1790-1842) and Hannah Holsworth (1791-1879).
My 4th great-grandparents.
Sarah’s father Robert Rose was born in 1790 to parents William Rose and Ann Harris (see below) and was baptised at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick – a village just up the road from Salhouse – on 8 August that year. William was sometimes described as a pauper in the parish records, a term that usually indicated that they could only get by on assistance from the parish or charity, so Robert clearly knew poverty as a child.
He married Hannah Holsworth on 9 April 1810 at St Martin at Oak Church in Norwich, Norfolk, but I’ve yet to find out why they chose to marry there. She’d been born on 12 January 1791 in Salhouse to Thomas Holsworth and Ann Parfrey, and was baptised in the village four days later.
Hannah and Robert brought up their large family in Salhouse, where he was listed as a husbandman or tenant farmer in various records.
The 1842 Tithe Map and Apportionment for Salhouse (a record designed to show who owned and occupied land and the monetary equivalent of the old tithe) mentioned a Robert Rose on several occasions but I’m unsure whether these men were the same or whether they were father and son (Robert Jnr was born in 1815). He was shown as occupying land owned by the Great Hospital in Norwich made up of a yard with sheds, four allotments given over to arable and a wooded plantation totalling just over 22 acres. The tithe sum payable to the vicar was 1l 12s 6d. Robert also occupied four blocks of land owned by a vicar made up of three arable allotments and one cottage and garden of about 10 acres in total, with payments due of 12s and 6d to the church.
However, Robert Snr died in March 1843 many miles from Salhouse in the village of Shelton, Norfolk, where he was buried on the 21st. The Norwich Mercury of 1 April reported on an inquest in which it was found that he’d been thrown into a ditch and crushed when a horse fell on him. He’d been sowing barley in the fields when one of the horses in the drill had got away. He ended up in the ditch while trying to catch it and was dead before any help could be given.
Robert was a farmer of 60 acres said to be worth £70 pa in Shelton, as noted in a settlement certificate issued by Salhouse parish to Hannah in December 1843. This stated that she’d been born in the village and that she and Robert had previously farmed 20 acres and lived there for 20 years. How long they’d had the Shelton farm is not clear but curiously the family were in Salhouse at the time of the 1841 census. His farming equipment and stock was sold by auction in October 1843 (notice in Norfolk Chronicle 30 September 1843).
Hannah married again, her new husband being shepherd Robert Harmer of Horstead. They wed on 13 January 1845 at Holy Trinity Church in Rackheath but the 1851 census shows them living some miles away in the village of Intwood, Norfolk, south west of Norwich. Perhaps it was Robert’s job that had taken them there. He died in December 1854 and was buried in Rackheath on 31 December. Hannah is missing in the 1861 census but crops up in 1871 living with her son Thomas Rose and his family in Salhouse, now described as a pauper. Her death was registered in 1879.
Hannah and Robert Rose had at least 11 children:
- Mary Ann Rose (1810-1881), my 3rd great-grand aunt. Mary Ann was baptised on 1 July 1810 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk, just three months after her parents married. Her own wedding was held in Salhouse on 22 September 1829, her groom being widower Edward Leggett. He was born in South Walsham, Norfolk, in 1800 and had married Charlotte Goffen in 1824. They had a daughter, Sophia, but Charlotte died and was buried in Salhouse on 9 April 1829. Edward worked as an agricultural labourer and census and baptism records show that he and Mary Ann brought up their family among the fields of Salhouse. The 1861 census showed Mary Ann not in Salhouse but in the St Saviour’s district of Norwich, listed as a visitor in the household of travelling draper John Sommerville and his wife Sarah. In 1871 the Leggett family were living in Lower Street, Salhouse, and by 1881 Edward and Mary Ann were listed as paupers – a term usually used to show reliance on the charity of the parish or others. Mary Ann died on 7 April 1881, the death certificate gave the cause of death as paralysis hemiplegia – the type of paralysis down one side of the body that’s often caused by a stroke. She’d suffered with it for two years. Edward died on 16 March 1885, suffering from what the death certificate called senile decay. The couple had a number of children including:
- Harriet Leggett (1830-1883). Born in Salhouse, Harriett married Benjamin Fox in 1868 in Buxton, Norfolk, and lived there and in nearby Hellesdon while raising a family. Benjamin worked as a farm labourer. She died in 1883, Benjamin remarried and died in 1901.
- Sarah Leggett (1831-1858). Born in Salhouse, she married labourer Samuel Powles there in 1851 but she died young.
- Mary Ann Leggett (1833-1874) became Samuel Powles’ second wife but she died young too in 1874. He married again and died in 1912.
- Robert Leggett (1835-1835).
- William Leggett (1836-????). Born in 1836 I’m unsure what happened to him as there were multiple people by this name in the area at the time.
- John Leggett (1838-1875). Born in Salhouse, John married Elizabeth Nobbins, raised a family and worked as an agricultural labourer / husbandman until his death in 1875. She remarried and lived until 1929.
- Susannah Leggett (1841-????) worked as a servant in Hampstead, Middlesex, and then married Edward Henry Ames, a soldier in the Coldstream Guards, at Bethnal Green in East London in 1864, a year or two after the birth of a son illegitimately. Edward served from 1858 but was discharged in 1876 with a heart condition that made him unfit for service. He died soon after in 1878. At some point Susannah ended up in Simcoe in Ontario, Canada, and married Norwich-born Robert John Quantrell there in 1915, curiously using Rose as her surname. His first wife was Susan’s cousin Mary Ann Rose (see below). I don’t know when Susannah died but he lived until 1924.
- Robert Leggett (1843-????) Born in Salhouse, I’ve not been able to trace him with confidence but he may have been a soldier based in Colchester Barracks at the time of the 1861 census.
- William Rose (1812-1874), my 3rd great-grand uncle, was born on 12 January 1812 and baptised on 19 January at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. William married Mary Ann Kidd in Salhouse on 25 December 1834. She was born in the village and baptised on 6 April 1817 to parents John, a husbandman, and Elizabeth. Their whereabouts afterwards is uncertain. It’s possible that William was the agricultural labourer living and working in the village of Sprowston, Norfolk, as noted in various census records. However, these say he was born in Hoveton a few miles from Salhouse. It’s only at the time of the 1871 census that he was billed as being from Salhouse, and by this time he was a carter. He died in 1874 and was buried in Sprowston on 1 November. Mary Ann continued to live in Sprowston (in 1881 shown as being on parish relief) until her death in 1898. They had a large family, including:
- Robert Rose (1835-1907). Born in Salhouse, he moved to Norwich and was a worker in the city’s famous mustard industry and lived mostly in the suburb of Lakenham. He married Amy Bateman in 1857 and had children with her. After her death he married Susannah Middleton in 1886. He died in 1907, Susannah in 1932.
- Elizabeth Rose (1837-????). Born in Salhouse, she was unmarried and living with her parents in 1861. I haven’t traced her after this.
- John Rose (1839-1920). Born in Salhouse, John lived and raised a family in Salhouse, and worked there as a blacksmith. He died in 1920.
- Susan Rose (1841-????). Born in Sprowston, she was unmarried and living with her parents in 1861.
- William Rose (1842-1909). William was born in Sprowston, Norfolk, but moved to Northumberland and married there. He raised a family, lived in Elswick and worked as a labourer in a gas works and a shipyard.
- Henry Rose (1845-1922) worked as a gas labourer and remained in and around Sprowston, Norfolk, all his life. He married Hannah Rose Manthorpe and raised a family there.
- Walter Rose (1848-1918) married Harriet Miller and raised a family around Sprowston while working at a brick works.
- Edward Rose (1857-????). Born in Sprowston, he worked in the gas industry.
- Robert Rose (1815-1886), my 3rd great-grand uncle, was baptised on 4 June 1815 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. He married Dinah Prudence Hart Pryer/Pryor on 7 January 1838 at St Augustine’s Church in Norwich and the 1841 census showed them in Salhouse, he working as an agricultural labourer. I mention above, in the story of his father, that he may be the Robert Rose listed on the Salhouse tithe map for 1842 although the balance of probability is that it’s his father, a farmer, who died that year. The 1851 census showed Robert in Salhouse with a growing family but Dinah died in the village in 1856 and was buried there on 7 February. Robert remained in Salhouse for the rest of his life, mostly working as an agricultural labourer. The 1861 census, however, listed him as a pork butcher and by 1881 he had a housekeeper living with him. Robert died on 3 May 1886, the date given in a notice in the Norfolk Chronicle of 15 May 1886. The couple’s known children were:
- Hannah Rose (1839-1934) was born in Salhouse and married agricultural labourer John Fox and raised a family but he died in 1878. She spent many of her widowed years in Salhouse and lived to a grand age.
- Robert Rose (1840-????). Born in Salhouse in around 1840, he’s difficult to trace after the 1851 census.
- Susan Rose (1842-1931) was born in Salhouse in 1842 and married farm labourer James Dye in Hemblington, a few miles away. They settled there and raised a family, both of them dying in 1931.
- Mary Ann Rose (1843-1914). Born in Salhouse, Mary Ann married shoemaker Robert John Quantrell in Norwich in 1864. However, they emigrated and ended up in Simcoe, Ontario, Canada, where they had a family and he worked as a farmer and gardener. Mary Ann died in 1914 and Robert married her cousin Susan the following year (see above). He died in 1924.
- William Rose (1846-????). Born in Salhouse, he’s not been possible to trace after the 1861 census, when he was working as an agricultural labourer.
- Sarah Ann Rose (1848-????). Born in Salhouse, she’s also been hard to trace after the 1861 census.
- Charles Rose (1850-????) was born in Salhouse and by 1871 was working as a mariner and lodging in Great Yarmouth. His fate is unknown.
- Matilda Rose (1848-????). Born in Salhouse, Matilda was working as a silk weaver in Norwich in 1871 and then married bricklayer Charles Edward Howes in the city in 1873. She had a number of children with him but died in 1888. He lived until 1924.
- John Rose (1854-????) was born in Salhouse. His trail goes cold after his childhood but he may have been serving time in 1871 in a Norfolk prison.
- Henry Rose (1855-????). Born in Salhouse, he too disappears after his childhood years.
- Sarah Rose (1817-1886), my 3rd great-grandmother. See further up the page for details about her life.
- Eliza Rose (1819-1893), my 3rd great-grand aunt. Eliza was baptised on 29 August 1819 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. She married local boy and agricultural labourer Christmas Rudd there on 15 November 1840 and brought up their family in the village. It’s possible Christmas was actually born Christopher Rudd – one was baptised in Salhouse on 26 December 1817, making it obvious where any ‘Christmas’ nickname would come from. However, Christmas’s marriage certificate was blank when it came to the name and occupation of his father yet Christopher was born to Nathaniel and Rebecca… The 1851 census placed Christmas and Eliza in Lower Street, Salhouse, and 10 years later Eliza was head of the household there, as Christmas was in Huntingfield, Suffolk, working as a shepherd. Whether this was a case of him travelling to get work or a sign of something wrong in their relationship will forever be unknown. He died in 1866, his death registered back home in Norfolk, so Eliza was living in Salhouse in 1871 as a widow. Ten years later she was at 7 Thorpe Mews, Kensington, London, with her daughter Jane and her family. I previously muddled Eliza with other Rudds in Norfolk and one in Richmond, Surrey, but she actually died in the Blofield Union Workhouse at Lingwood in Norfolk in January 1893 and was buried in Strumpshaw on the 16th. A note on the parish records makes it clear this woman was born in Salhouse in 1819. A report on the infirmary at Lingwood at about the time Eliza was there paints a terrible picture of squalid conditions for the men but rather less awful for the women, although there was a clear lack of trained staff. Eliza and Christmas had a number of children:
- John Rudd (1840-1853).
- Hannah Rudd (1842-????). Born in Salhouse, by 1861 she was a general servant working at a schoolmaster’s house in Bushey, Hertfordshire. I’ve not been able to trace her after this.
- Jane Rudd (1844-1917). Born Salhouse, Jane worked as a domestic servant for a while but migrated to Battersea to stay with her cousin Susan Ames. She married draper James Neary there in 1872. By 1881 they had settled in Kensington, west London, with a young family and he was working as a master cabman. He died in 1911, Jane in 1917.
- Daniel Rudd (1847-1857).
- Margaret Rudd (1851-1922). Born in Salhouse, by 1871 Margaret working as a domestic servant in Hampstead, north London. She was then a servant at Heigham Grove House just outside Norwich in Norfolk in 1881 but then emigrated to Toronto, Canada, where she married London-born William Thomas Charles Troughton in 1884. He worked as a steward at a golf club among other things. He died in 1913, Margaret in 1922.
- Robert Rudd (1854-1897) was born in Salhouse and married Harriet Lake in Norwich, Norfolk, in 1886. They settled there and Robert worked as a coachman and groom while Harriet had a number of children. Harriet worked as a nurse after her husband’s death in 1897. She lived until 1945.
- Ann Rose (1821-????), my 3rd great-grand aunt. Ann was baptised on 24 June 1821 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. I’ve not been able to trace her after this. An Ann Rose was married in the village in 1847 but her father was said to be William Rose.
- Thomas Rose (1823-1915), my 3rd great-grand uncle. Thomas gave his date of birth as 12 November 1823 on his merchant navy records, and he was baptised on 4 January 1824 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. He was living at home at the time of the 1841 census and married Susanna Cunningham, baptised on 7 March 1824 and a Salhouse native, on 20 September 1846. His merchant navy record is dated the same year and described him as 5ft 4ins tall, with black hair, brown eyes and a dark complexion. However, all future census records listed him as either an agricultural labourer or pork butcher (1871) based in Salhouse so it may be that he gave up early on his seafaring adventures or that he split his time between sea and shore. Susanna had at least two children with Thomas but she died in 1879. Thomas then married widow Elizabeth Leggett in 1880 but they are missing from the 1881 census. In 1891 and 1901 they were back in Lower Street, Salhouse, Thomas as a butcher/agricultural labourer and Elizabeth as a laundress. They were both listed as old age pensioners and he a former pork butcher in the 1911 census. Thomas died in 1915 and Elizabeth, who’d been born in Woodbastwick in 1837, in 1929. Thomas and Susannah had at least two children:
- Robert Rose (1847-????) was born in Salhouse.
- Sarah Hannah Rose (1858-1919) was baptised in Salhouse and married shoemaker George Dowsing in 1875. He hailed from Woodbridge in Suffolk but they lived in Salhouse and raised a family there. George died in 1910 and Sarah in 1919.
- Elizabeth Rose (1825-????), my 3rd great-grand aunt. Elizabeth was baptised on 6 November 1825 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. She married John Blackburn at St Fabian and St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick, Norfolk, on 16 December 1845. He was a husbandman and agricultural labourer, born there in 1818 and baptised with the surname Blackbone. They had several children in Salhouse. I don’t know what happened to the family after this other than an appearance by John in the 1861 census lodging with two of his children in Spitalfields, Norwich, Norfolk, when he was listed as an agricultural labourer.
- Eleanor Blackburn (1846-????). She wasn’t with her father in Norwich in 1861.
- Robert Blackburn (1848-????). Was with his father in Norwich in 1861.
- Mary Blackburn (1851-????). Was with her father in Norwich in 1861.
- John Rose (1828-1916), my 3rd great-grand uncle. John was baptised on 8 June 1828 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. He married local girl Sarah Hall in Salhouse on 16 February 1848. She was from the village and was born on 2 June to parents William and Mary Hall, who had her named at the Salhouse Particular Baptist chapel. The 1851 census listed them living on Upper Street, with John as an agricultural labourer. But by 1861 the couple had moved to Shoreditch in London, John working as a labourer. In 1871 they were in Maidstone Street, Shoreditch, John now listed as a shopkeeper. The couple are missing from the 1881 census but in 1891 they were at 43 Brandon Road, Walthamstow, and John was working as a fellowship porter. These were people who carried “measurable goods” such as coal, grain, flour and salt on and off ships and to and from warehouses. If these are one and the same John, he certainly had a varied working career. But I believe he moved back to Salhouse with Sarah and that she died there late in 1900. They don’t appear to have had any children. John married Rackheath-born Mary Ann Bayfield early in 1901 and was living with her at the time of the census that year in Upper Street, Salhouse, working as an agricultural labourer. In 1911 he was a yardman on a farm, their address given as The Lodge, Salhouse. John died in 1916 and Mary Ann in 1921.
- Susannah Rose (1830-????), my 3rd great-grand aunt. Susan was baptised on 18 July 1830 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk. She married labourer William Thompson at St Peter’s Church in nearby Lingwood on 21 November 1848. He was baptised on 19 September 1820 in the neighbouring village of Strumpshaw, Norfolk, where the couple settled after their marriage, raised a large family of at least 13 children and William worked as an agricultural labourer. William died in 1890 and was buried in Strumpshaw on 9 November. Susan continued to live in the village with her family, recorded there in the 1891 census. By 1901 they had all moved the short distance to Brundall and Susan was working as a laundress. By 1908, when her son Albert enlisted in the Norfolk Regiment, she was living at 61 Silver Road, Norwich. She was still there at the 1911 census, living with several family members.
- William Thompson (1848-????) was born in Lingwood and worked as an agricultural labourer. He lived in Strumpshaw and married but after the 1881 census, which showed him with two sons, the family completely disappears from the records.
- John Thompson (1850-1902) was born in Strumpshaw and worked as an agricultural labourer. He lived in Strumpshaw and Brundall with his parents until his death in 1902. He was unmarried.
- George Thompson (1852-1913) was born in Strumpshaw and stayed in the area all his life, marrying Elizabeth Rose in 1876 and raising a family. He worked as an agricultural labourer and died in 1913. Elizabeth died in 1927.
- Edward James Thompson (1854-1925). Born in Strumpshaw, Edward married Ann Elizabeth Beck in 1878 and had a family but he was a widower by the 1891 census. He worked as an agricultural labourer and married again in 1906, his new wife being Great Yarmouth-born Caroline Clarke. Edward died in 1925.
- Henry Thompson (1856-????). Born in Strumpshaw, Norfolk, he worked as an agricultural labourer. He was still living at home at the 1911 census but I’ve not been able to trace him after.
- Sarah Ann Thompson (1858-1858).
- Sarah Ann Thompson (1859-????) was born in Strumpshaw and was still living at home at the 1911 census, when she was a laundress, but I’ve not been able to trace her either.
- Robert Thompson (1861-????). Born in Strumpshaw, Robert is traceable until the 1881 census as an agricultural labourer.
- Mary Ann Thompson (1863-1932) was born in Strumpshaw and married Yorkshire-born William Knights in the village in 1882. They remained in the area, moving from village to village, William working as an agricultural labourer, a gardener and vermin killer. They raised a family and latterly settled in Blofield, Norfolk. William died there in 1929, Mary Ann in 1932.
- Albert Thompson (1864-1926). Born in Strumpshaw, he initially worked as an agricultural labourer but then served as a private in the Norfolk Regiment. He became a reservist in 1908 and served in the Labour Corps during the First World War. Albert appears to have remained single.
- Walter Thompson (1864-1932). Born in Strumpshaw, he married Hannah Maria Blake in Rockland St Mary, Norfolk, in 1896. They raised a family and lived in the Strumpshaw area, where Walter worked as a farm labourer. They were living in Blofield at the 1921 census
- Hannah Thompson (1870-1923). Born in Strumpshaw, Hannah married farm labourer John Brown in Strumpshaw in 1893. They raised a family in the area. Hannah may be the woman by that name who died there in 1923.
- Clara Thompson (1871-1916). Born in Strumpshaw, Norfolk, in 1871, she married railway labourer Harry Moore in 1893. They lived in Norwich and raised a family. Clara died in 1916.
- Henry Rose (1832-1916), my 3rd great-grand uncle. Henry was baptised on 29 January 1832 at All Saints Church in Salhouse, Norfolk, and married Sarah Guymer at St Gervase and St Protase Church in Plumstead Parva/Little Plumstead on 1 April 1851. She was a native of the village, born in 1827 and baptised on 8 April that year, and Henry had been lodging with the family according to the 1851 census. Sarah had already had a child, Robert, by the time of their marriage and he’d been baptised Robert Guymer in the village on 14 March. The couple settled in Salhouse with the baby and Henry worked in the fields and as an engine driver on the farms. The family were living in Cawston, Norfolk, for the 1881 census, in Holme Hale in 1891 and Burnham Sutton in 1901. Sarah died in Burnham Westgate in 1905 and was buried on 27 November. Henry was in the Docking Union Workhouse at the 1911 census, perhaps for medical reasons, and died in 1916. They had a number of children over the years including:
- John Rose (1853-1854).
- John Rose (1855-????) was born in Salhouse in 1855 but I’ve not traced him beyond the 1871 census.
- Edward Rose (1858-????) was born in Salhouse in 1858. He was at home with his parents in Cawston at the 1881 census, working as a farm labourer, but is difficult to trace after this.
- Elizabeth Rose (1861-1949) was born in Salhouse. She married farm labourer William Warner in Cawston, Norfolk, in 1883 and raised a family with him in the area. She was still living in the district in 1939 and died in 1949. William died in 1935.
- Mary Ann Rose (1864-????) was born in Salhouse. She married William Edward Soames, a blacksmith from Cawston, in 1885. The census records showed them moving around Norfolk over the following decades, children in tow. He died in 1937 and Mary Ann was living in Kings Lynn by 1939. I’ve not pinned down her death date.
- Albert Rose (1867-1947). Born in Salhouse in 1867, he was working as a tram driver and living in Upper Clapton, London, at the time of the 1901 census. By this time he’d married Jessie Thomson back in her native Scotland and the family would ultimately settle there in Dunbartonshire, with Albert working as a labourer in the shipbuilding industry. Jessie died in 1940.
William Rose (1759?-1814) and Ann Harris (1755-1836?).
My 5th great-grandparents.
There is a great deal of mystery surrounding William Rose, and also to his wedding to Ann Harris. I don’t know where he came from or when he was born but Ann was born in the village of Woodbastwick in Norfolk in 1755 and was baptised in at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church on 6 July. Her parents were Thomas and Ann.
I can find no record of a wedding between a William Rose and Ann Harris in Norfolk, or anywhere else for that matter, that would fit the dates. Curiously, there is a marriage between a William Kelly and an Ann Harris in Woodbastwick on 15 October 1782 and I’m thinking that this is our couple. Does this represent a clerical error or did William change his name for an unknown reason? I doubt it’s the former considering the number of banns that were read before the wedding listing him as ‘Kelly’. There are no records of Kelly baptisms in the areas around Woodbastwick either.
The couple raised their family in and around Woodbastwick, the records sometimes describing him as a pauper. I suspect William died in 1814 and Ann in 1836. A William Rose, said to be a resident of neighbouring Salhouse, was buried aged 59 at Woodbastwick on 11 January 1814. An Anne Rose was buried at All Saints in Salhouse on 11 September 1836 but she was described as 85 so this could be someone else.
The couple had a number of children, including several sets of twins, but many died as babies:
- Ann Rose (1785-????), my 4th great-grand aunt. Ann was baptised on 17 July 1785 at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick, Norfolk. I’ve found no other records about her.
- William Rose (1787-????), my 4th great-grand uncle. William was baptised on 2 September 1787 at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick, Norfolk, but then disappears from the records. His twin was Thomas.
- Thomas Rose (1787-1787), my 4th great-grand uncle. Thomas was baptised on 2 September 1787 at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick, Norfolk, and died just a few weeks later. He was buried on 14 October. His twin was William.
- James Rose (1789-1789), my 4th great-grand uncle. James was baptised on 15 March 1789 at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick, Norfolk, and died just a couple of months later. He was buried on 12 June on the same day as his twin brother Richard.
- Richard Rose (1789-1789), my 4th great-grand uncle. Richard was baptised on 15 March 1789 at St Fabian & St Sebastian Church in Woodbastwick, Norfolk, and died just a couple of months later. He was buried on 12 June on the same day as his twin brother James.
- Robert Rose (1790-1842), my 4th great-grandfather. See elsewhere on this page for his details.
