She never got back to me, so I do not have it to post. Katharine: I would not know, but probably not worth much or anything. It was a popular poem and who knows who wrote the verses there and for what reason. Catherine: That was Lisa Cava who posted she had it. She never got back to me, so I do not have it to post.

The Rose in my name (it is also in my mother's name, my daughter's name and my soon to be born grand-daughter's name) is from Rose Hartwick Thorpe. So needless to say, as a family we are interested in any additional information you might have. It will be interesting to see if the oral family stories have remained faithful to her actual life.

I didn't know the poem at all until I found the book, and it's neat to think how it was so popular a few generations ago. If the obituary is interesting I would be glad to post it here. It might make an interesting addition for anyone who is interested more in the book's history. - John Hi Lisa,

Thorpe was appointed my grandmother's guardian when my great-grandmother died, at the time my grandmother was 9 years of age; they remained close until Rose's death - and I recently came across the newspaper clipping of Rose's obituary, tucked away in an old book of my grandmother's. I've always heard of the poem and my mom would sometimes quote a few lines, but I've never actually seen the entire poem - so I googled it today just for grins & found this. thank you! Rose H.
