The Rose Family Home Page

I am researching the Rose Family from Lewisham, Kent, England starting from about 1760.Names found so far are Rose, Boothby, Coleshell, Blaker, Smith, Murray,Avey, Hanson, Moore, Peebles, Oliver,Spratley and Tucker. Most of my ancestors came from the London area.

I also have a particular interest in the Galindo family through my Grandfather who served in the Army in the 1870's with Richard Eyles Galindo. They were close friends, so much so that they drew blood from their fingers and drank it in a glass of wine, to eternal friendship. Their friendship lasted for over 50 yrs.
R E Galindo came from a long line of Spanish Dons.

Additionally I have researched the life of Charles Hanson, the illegitimate son of Whistler, the famous painter. Charles Hanson married my granmother's sister.

I shall be happy to receive any comments or information.
