Many letters exist from Sr. Rosann to her family, mostly to her younger brother Thomas Uriah Blair, Jr. in which she shows a great deal of homesickness and ask many times for money. Although she took the veil and vow of poverty, she still yearned for the finer things in life.
She served in many states, Missouri, New Mexico, Texas, Colorado, Illinois, etc.
Note in her file says: "The family moved to Kansas about 1870 . Little Ellen was at Loretto being prepared for her First Communion and she preferred to remain in Kentucky with Mother Elizabeth.
Sr. Rosann had an aunt named Sr. Rosann (Dant). Both were in the same order yet only served in Texas at the same time.
