Thomas and Jane Rose had seven children, six of whom had families.

 

The genealogy of these families, is organised in what is known as The Henry System

of numbering.

 

For the purpose of identification, Thomas and Jane's first son is referred to as Thomas II Rose. He was married firstly to Jane Jones, to whom he had two children, and subsequently to Ann Crew, adding 14 children to the family. Thomas II Rose is numbered 1; being the first born child. 

 

If we look at his second marriage, the first digit of the left hand side of the children, 1, identifies Thomas as the father. The second digit, 1 = Sarah Rose, 2 = Mary Ann Rose etc as the order of birth.
