Biography

Rozelia was born July 2, 1866, and died October 6, 1881, and is buried in the Fillmore Cemetery beside her mother Mary Ann, in the Loren Kenney grave block. She died of Inflammation a little more than 7 months after her mother died, at age 15.^[1]

From the memoir of sister Silena, Delia is mentioned but not Rozelia, they may be one in the same. Please see Delia Cook excerpt from Tangled Threads.

In 1870 living in^[2]Fillmore, Millard, Utah Territory she is living with step-sister Mary Deseret Kenney, brother Benjamin Cook, Anna Rosetta Cook, John Henry Cook, step-brother Charles Loren Kenney. Mother Mary Cook and step brother James W Bailey are in the next house

In 1880 she is the step-daughter of Loren Kenney listed with her mother Mary, stepfather Loren Kenney, stepbrother Amasa Kenney and brother John Henry Cook, Loren's grandson George Sears and Amasa's son Amasa ^[3]in Fillmore, Millard, Utah

Rozelia is not ever mentioned in memoirs her sister Silena wrote her Memoirs titled "Tangled Threads"— by Silena Giroux

With that being said, Rozelia is in the Census, Delia is in the Memoirs and died young a few months after her mother Mary Ann Tucker. Possibility is that Rozelia Princetta is Rozelia Adelia Princetta Kenney, called Delia
