Hi Doyle and other interested listers;

I have the book "Families of the South Arm of Bonne Bay" 1800's-1930's by
Roy Osmond
This is the info listed for "Thomas Wilson ROSE (1863-1926) of
Brigus,Conception Bay,arrived in Bonne Bay by 1900 from Englee.He was a
general dealer,with two small stores,including a liquor store.Rose settled
and raised his family at Curzon Village,where he remained until his
death.His business went bankrupt in the pre-1920's"

Thomas Wilson ROSE dob 1863 Brigus dod 1926 Curzon Village
married 1900 to
Mary Julia HALFYARD dob 1871 Ochre Pit Cove dod 1963 California
CHILDREN
Frances Willard Rose dob 1901 Woody Point dod ?
George Nelson Rose dob 1904 Woody point dod 1971 Woody Point
married Clarissa "Mildred" TAYLOR dob 1901 Woody Point
Julia Myra Rose dob 1906 Woody Point dod ?
I also have the parents of Clarissa Taylor in this book if you need this
information.
This book does have some mistakes but it is a very good book for researching
this area.
Just want to say hello to Leona and verify her knowledge.
