Michael Rossi was born in Rome, and traveled to the United States when he was just 12 years old. He changed his name from Rossi to Rose. The copy of Michael's death certificate says he was born in Rome and died from heart failure. It does not give the names of his parents and considering the number of Rossi's in Italy, my family tree will probably only go back as far as him on this branch.
This is a picture of Michael Rose with his wife Clara THATCHER. Clara and Michael had seven girls including my grandmother, Stella pictured below. Can you image what it was like trying to get into the bathroom in that house? |
