 Family
(מִשְׁפָּחָה)
Welcome to my genealogy pages. For many years I wanted to
trace my family history back as far as I could, more
specifically, the Rose family history. With all of the
mundane tasks and projects that fill our daily lives, it is
often difficult to find the time to work on a project of this magnitude. With us now
settled in our new (but old) home in the Japanese countryside, I decided it was time to finally tackle this
project.
Please note, this is an ongoing project and I am hoping to
connect with as many family members as possible to make the
Rose genealogical timeline up to date and even more
complete. If you want to discuss anything on this page, or
if you have pictures or stories you would like to share with
other members of the family, please use the Disqus comment
window at the bottom of this page or go to the
contact page for other options.
I am looking forward to speaking with all of you. Until
then.
With love always.

undaunted, Louis Rose my Pa tried again. It was important for him to be his
