from an e-mail from Doris Ault to Shawna Woodard 31 Jul 2003: Rosanna united with the Disciple Church, smoked a clay pipe, and was afflicted with shaking palsy. Rosanna helped raise her grandsons after Minnie, wife of George died. At some point in their marriage Tom and Rosanna did not get along, consequently they are buried in separate cemeteries - Tom in Good Hope Cemetery, Wyandot County, Ohio, and Rosanna in York Street, Wyandot County, Ohio. Asa Flowers (a grandson) remembered that George Fox sang at Rosanna's funeral held in their log home.


from Doris Ault's research for the Flower reunion, August 2007: Rosanna smoked a pipe. She was thought of as very kind and helpful. Rosanna raised her grandchildren, Asa and Luther when their mother died. Rosanna was baptisted in the Disciples of Christ/Christian Church. Rosanna had shaking palsy.
