Hi,
I am looking for information about John Apward Rossiter and his wife Fanny. I know that they had at least one child, Mary, christened in Child Okeford on September 12th 1790.
I am particularly interested in their parents and other children.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
best wishes

Hello,
My gr.gr.gr. grandmother was Fanny Rossiter. Fanny was born about 1794 in Dorsetshire England. She married Robert Young and moved to the United States and then to Canada. Fanny passed away April 9,1863 in Sarnia Ontario Canada. She named her children Fanny, Sarah, John, Samuel, Edward, and William. I know that Fanny Young my gr.gr. grandmother and two of her brothers came to the U.S.
My great great grandmother Fanny wrote that her uncle Rossiter was a wealthy man. I have no proof yet but ther may be a connectio to John Rossiter of Child Okeford.
Regards, Pegy
