ROSEs

William Rose, Sr. (b1724-a1740)
John Rose, Sr. (>1730->1795)
John Rose, Jr. (c1755-c1850)
Wilson Rose (c1807-c1889)
Robert V. Rose (1829-c1897)
John H. Rose (c1859-c1917)
Hiley V. Rose (1895-1968)

Our Rose family lived much of the last two centuries in southwestern Virginia and the mountains of North Carolina. Some research places the Rose immigrants at Kilvarock, Scotland in the early 18th century. It is difficult to confirm this however as much of the early records are incomplete.
