Louisa Victoria Rose was the daughter of William and Catharine (Hitchcock) Rose.

Obituary
Northern Christian Advocate - 1861
ROSE.--Louisa Victoria, daughter of William and Catharine Rose, died of consumption, November 25, 1861, aged 20 years and 2 months. She seemed to linger slowly, yet patiently, for the shadowy messenger to free her from the bonds of suffering and clay, and introduce her to the associations of the redeemed. Her last few days were full of holy triumph, and the final struggle was a complete victory over death and the grave. She chose this text to be dwelt upon at her funeral: "For God so loved the world," & c. John 3:16. This is the third daughter which Brother and Sister Rose have buried, within three short years. God has seen fit to detail the fell disease, consumption, as a messenger of affliction to this family. At his first call, Ruth, aged 21 years, followed him, September 27, 1859, and in one week was joined by her sister Martha, both departing this life in the triumphs of faith. Side by side, under the snow, their bodies sleep, to wake to life again in the resurrection morning, no more to pine, and waste, and die, but to mount up to the hills of God forever.
