The grandmother of Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy, Rosanna Cox Fitzgerald gave birth to 12 children in her short lifespan, nine of whom lived to adulthood. She died suddenly when she heard a rumor that her entire family had been killed in a train wreck on the way to their Sunday School picnic. The rumor, of course, was false.

1. Michael Fitzgerald 1858-1860
2. James T. Fitzgerald 1860-1950
3. Thomas J. Fitzgerald, Jr. 1861-1893
4. JOHN FRANCIS FITZGERALD
5. Michael J. Fitzgerald 1864-1925
6. William S. Fitzgerald 1865-1899
7. Edward C. Fitzgerald 1867-1940
8. Joseph A. Fitzgerald 1868-1920
9. Ellen Rosanna Fitzgerald 1870-1870
10. George F. Fitzgerald 1871-1914
11. Henry S. Fitzgerald 1875-1955
12. Mary Ellen Fitzgerald 1879-1879

9/21/23 After much research, it has been discovered that Rosanna Cox-Fitzgerald was actually born in County Fermanagh rather than, as was previously believed, the neighbouring County Cavan.
