Sherry, Thank you so much. I will keep digging. I haven't given up yet. I found a Grover Prosser in OK. that was born in 1906 and died in 1973. I also found a Grover Prosser born in the 1850s that had a father of the same name. Possibly my Grover had a son Grover that I didn't know of. I'll get farther into it when I can. Thank you for your help. I appreciate it so much.Julia> From: > To: > Date: Sun, 10 Feb 2008 07:59:30 -0500> Subject: Re: [CHEROKEE-SURNAMES] welch names> > Hi Julia,> I have posted and searched for info on Prosser and Rose but have found > nothing..They really must of stayed off all census around..I will keep my > eyes open and I am still waiting to here from a few people so if I get > anything I will let you know..> Sorry.> Sherry> > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Julia Prosser" <>> To: <>> Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 11:37 PM> Subject: Re: [CHEROKEE-SURNAMES] welch names> > > > All I have about Mary Ann Rose is as follows.
