The closes that I can find for Rosa's birth is in Chelsfield, Kent, but it's not her as she died the same year.

this is so bad of you Diane - why on earth have you done two new postings, neither of which you have revisited. GR do not allow duplicates even on the same person/family and you now have three that we know of

Always good to give us the actual references, folks, it saves others searching in future.
