Hi Chris, Just stumbled across this and noticed you are in my family tree!
June Agnes Rose was your mother, right?
Well, her older sister, Frances Olive Bessie Rose (Wright) was my Grandmother.
I think that makes you and my mother Peggy Byrd (Wright) first cousins!
We were looking at Okeford Fitzpaine (we're living in Australia now) and Mum thinks that Brooklyn (she lived there for a while with her Grandparents William and Rose Mary Rogers (Rose) was in Higher St, not Lower St.
We were searching on Streetview, Google Maps. I have photos of her standing with your Grandmother in front of the place. Think we found it. Will confirm with you once I hear back from you.
I have a lot of information about the Roses and Okeford Fitzpaine, as well as a lot of photos you may be interested in.
Regards, Anthea Chester

Always thought this house was called "Brooklyn" by my mother's family, the Rose family.

Did anybody know William Williams Rose and wife Roseanna Rose formerly Rogers?

Chris
