Memories

As documented in Rose Anecdotes:

Lewis Rose would have been a standout in a crowd. A big man with flaming red hair and a red beard, he was known for his extraordinary physical strength. His granddaughter, Roma Rose Myers, recalls that “He could pound through a board with his fist.” Considering that he was a blacksmith as well as a farmer, this strength came in handy. Another distinguishing feature was a double row of front teeth, probably the result of permanent teeth that came in without pushing out the baby teeth. He apparently had little tolerance for the kind of horseplay and rough behavior that passed for entertainment at that time. He also had a quick temper. According to one family story, he was driving his wagon along the road one day when he came to a group of six men sitting atop a section of rail fence. They were entertaining themselves by taunting passers-by with rude remarks and generally being obnoxious. Lewis was treated to some of their raucous humor and found it offensive. Before the idlers realized what he was about, Lewis had stopped his horse, leaped from his wagon, and grabbed the top rail of the section of fence where there were sitting. He lifted up that top rail and heaved it into the mud, hecklers and all. Another story concerns an evening church meeting (service). The preacher was laboring to make his point and having a tough time of it because of the interruptions and general disturbance caused by some young rowdy. Whether this pain in the neck was drunk and disorderly or a troublemaker by nature is not clear. In either case, after repeated admonitions to settle down and stop the disruptions, Lewis had enough. He sprang from his seat, grabbed the ruffian by the collar and the seat of the pants, propelled him at a run down the aisle of the church, and heaved him headfirst into a snowbank outside. The rest of the service proceeded without incident. As the story was always told by Lewis’s grandson, Rolland, it appeared that Lewis was sitting as part of the congregation. Roma’s recollection that he was “kind of a Baptist preacher” might mean that Lewis himself was doing the preaching. In any case, having done some preaching himself would sharpen his sense of propriety and add to his motivation for taking direct action to restore order. The church at which the above episode took place may well have been the church at Centerpoint. Lewis had hewn three sets of logs for the church and had helped to raise it, so he would have definitely had an interest in what went on there. As the story about the hewn logs was told years later, great-granddaughter Sarah understood from Rolland that Lewis had hewn a set of logs three different times, with the first two sets being used for another purpose before the church could actually be built. A fictionalized account of this bit of family history won her the Barnes Historical Fiction Award her senior year at Otterbein College. In the 1960’s, Rolland and Alice guided Sarah and Bill Skaates through the back roads from Scottown to the log church, still standing in good repair and in use. Roma’s recollection, however, was not so specific. She remembered only that he had helped provide the logs and some of the labor to erect the church. Born in Lawrence County to one of the first three families in the area, Lewis was himself the first man in the county to own a spring wagon. Like his father, he was married twice. His first wife, Margaret Lambert Rose, bore him twelve children. His marriage to Sarah Louisa Hoskinson produced six more children: Redmond Lake, Jesse, Oliver, Susan Frances, Samantha Alice, and Anna May. Lewis died when his youngest child was six years old and was buried in the Lawrence Chapel cemetery near Good Hope Church on Rt. 218 near Mercerville.

Research Notes

In the "memory" above from the reference for "Rose Andecdotes" - the author states Lewis' birth as Lawrence County, Ohio, with the exact quote of: ". Born in Lawrence County to one of the first three families in the area, Lewis was himself the first man in the county to own a spring wagon." Currently, no birth record has been discovered to include here.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Lewis by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Lewis:
