Hello All, My brick wall has my head hurting from banging it against the brick. I have been looking for years for Rose FLOWER born June 20,1847 to Paul and Mary Ann Flower nee Fisher. She is the 3rd child of the 4 children to Paul and Mary Ann, their oldest being Elizabeth Dinah Flower born Dec 09, 1842, Mary Ann born Dec 02.1845 and John William Flower born June 19, 1849, he is my Great Grandfather. The last document I have with any mention of Rose FLOWER is the death certificate of Paul Flower August 02, 1869 and Rose FLOWER is the informant which states "X Mark of Rose Flowers present at death 1 Clarence Terrace, Rotherhithe". The certificate has an "s "on the Surname " FLOWERS" but that was not uncommon as my family has gone through years of with registrars adding an "s" when their wasn't supposed to be one. I have been unable to find Rose on the 1871 census or any other census after 1861 or any ship's manifest indicating she may have left the country. I have not found any marriage or death certificate for her any help would be really appreciated. Norm Flower Vancouver Island British Columbia

Norm, I have some by the name of FLOWER in my tree. The names you mention don't seem to be in my line, but I have found that some of the records are transcribed as FLOWERS and FOWLER. Their Surrey family came from Basingstoke, HAM. Good luck with you search.
