Rose and her brother President Cleveland are both my 6th cousins through our common Puritan Great Grandfather Deacon Samuel Chapin of Springfield MA.

Her branches of her family also moved west from Massachusetts to the NY State frontier after the Revolutionary War. They settled in Counties near my Harvey and Whittlesey great grandparents. Rose helped her brother when he needed a WH hostess, so I will help Rose by watching over her page.
