The date of birth is given on the death record as 1866 - which has to be incorrect if he is the child of William, as William was born in 1864 (a more accurate estimation of Victor's birth, from the age given at death, would be 1887).*
Information from Mercer county death records, age 66, parents given, dates given, retired coal miner, accident, resident of Rt. 3, Princeton. Informant, Luther Rose. Burial at Pisgah cemetery.
A Mercer county ledger entry for 1902 lists Victor Rose married A.A. Meador, 3 December, ages 18 and 18, performed by James W. Lilly; parents of couple Wm and Alice and WHH -and Ollie. Victor's occupation: FARMER. If using this as a starting point for his birthdate, it comes out to 1884.
