In the Posse Comitatus of 1798 Thomas Rose Snr is listed as a farmer at Lower Winchendon.

He has 18 horses, 6 wagons and 6 carts.

So pleased for you Elizabeth. You must be chuffed.

Julie, I'm so excited!
The little village is just a few miles west of Aylesbury and is so sweet. The church was in some disrepair and was being renovated when R. and I visited. We saw the huge memorial inside the church to the Rose family, but then I didn't know that it listed three of my ancestors!

I'm planning my next trip to Bucks. Archives, so if you want anything looking up whilst I'm there just let me know.

The memorial in the church has been photographed and an attempt made to read the inscription on the link I gave above, and has been immensely useful.

I have now found, on Google Books, a book that is out of copyright, and I have downloaded it to my tablet.

It gives:


On plain mural tables of white marble on the south side of the nave:

In the vault beneath are deposited the remains of
Susannah, the wife of Mr. Thomas Rose of this parish,
who died the 15th of Novr, 1778, aged 35 years.

married Mr. John Parrott, and afterwards Mr. Thomas
Tuck, died the 8th of January, 1798, aged 31 years.

Ooh Liza that is amazing .. what a wonderful find, but didn't a lot of them die at a young age, so sad.

Julie, it's the three daughters of Thomas Rose who pre-deceased him that chokes me up. I doesn't say, but I bet childbearing contributed towards some of the deaths.

Thomas' will gives me lots of details of the grandchildren, but not all the names.

We are booked in to the Centre of Buckinghamshire Studies for next Tuesday - I can't wait!

I have just updated this as I didn't add the other details I subsequently found.
