John ROSE

PLEASE NOTE:  Several patrilineal descendants of our subject have been Y-DNA tested for the Rose Family DNA Project.  You will find no results or lineages displayed online by the project, so please see this page for test results and a discussion of their meaning.  Please also note that while the Rose Project asserts that the descendants of our subject have "crossed the pond" by making a match with a ROSE family whose origin is in Invergordon, Scotland, and another in Perthshire, Scotland, I am convinced they do not remotely match, so please contact me before you waste any time trying to connect these families on paper.
Husband:  John ROSE

Several files at Ancestry's Public Member Trees, claim the John ROSE who married Mary STREET is our subject's son.  I've yet to find any evidence to support the claim.

Keywords for search engines:  USA, US, United States, Virginia

Sources (n.b., King George Co. was formed in 1721 from Stafford Co.; St. Paul's Parrish was in Stafford Co. up until 1777 when it became included in King George Co. after a boundary adjustment between the two counties):

1.  Stafford County Marriage Records - 1700s, from the St. Paul Parish Registry of Stafford County [Virginia] (online at www.kykinfolk.com; transcribed by Rebecca Cummings):
John Rose and Lucy Bennet, October 14, 1731.

3.  Report from the ROSE DNA Project at FamilyTreeDNA.

4.  Message posted to the Rose Family Genealogy Forum (online at GenForum.com):  see especially Message #9789 posted by Carl YORK suggesting our subject may be brother to William ROSE.

5.  Public Member Tree (online at Ancestry.com).  Twelve files there make the John ROSE who married Mary STREET our subject's son.  Two files there make our subject son of John ROSE & Sarah BUCK, which would connect him to the Wethersfield, CT, ROSEs.  No one at WorldConnect does either (as of 12/08).  Nothing appears proven.
