***My First Great Grandmother***

Rosa and her husband Reuben had 9 children, all born in Nebraska. They were: Clarence Robert, b. 1878, Leroy, b. 1880, Etta May, b. 1882, Anna Belle, b. 1885, Elbert, b. 1888, John Walter, b. 1890, Charles Earl, b. 1894, Howard, b. 1897, and, William J., b. 1898.

Rosa's mother's maiden name was SARAH LOUISE GILLILAND or SARAH LOUISE WITHROW. Rosa's father's name was MICHAEL DONNELLY. He was born in Ireland, and Sarah was born in Iowa. I have not been able to locate records for Sarah. I have not been able to locate records for Rosa. Rosa was reported to have been born in Keokuk, IA, but Keokuk is a town and a county so don't know whether it was Lee County, or Keokuk County.

The photo is of Clarissa Rosella Donnelly Curtis, and Reuben Alexander Curtis.

Note: Rosa's death certificate states she died on 27 Aug 1924.
