This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Wylam, Rose Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ZZB.2ACI/2640 Message Board Post: I have looked until I am blind. Myrtle Rose was born approximately 1893 in Ohio...maybe Trumbull and she had one more child and so I know she lived past 1930. I have often wondered if the name is correct,but it is listed as Myrtle Rose Wylam on death certificates of her children, so am going to hope it is indeed Rose. I would therefore be looking for Rose information in the western Pa and very eastern Ohio area and The Rose name is so very vast. Perhaps you can help. I cannot locate her grave,an obit,and actually never knew she existed as I acquired a step grandmother whom I thought was my grandmother...her name was Ethelind. Here is the 1930 info I have and really want to know about her and have searched for a very long time. Can anyone guide me to a path to look more?
