Rosey __?__1

| Birth* | August 1788 | Rosey __?__ was born in August 1788.1 |
| Research Notes* | | What was Rosey's surname?... Her gravestone identified her only as "Rosey, wife of John Leib". Her Find a Grave memorial reported her maiden name as "Funk", but didn't identify her parents. Other researchers who have posted their trees on Ancestry have identified her as "Rosanna Isley", a daughter of Christian Isley. All of these trees we've seen appear to us to have originated, as copies, from the same first tree, and to our dismay, none have contained sources in order to verify relationships. So, who was Rosey, really?...1 |
| Marriage* | | She married John Leib, son of John Leib and Catherine Saddler.1,2 |

William Hooper b. c 1617, d. 5 Dec 1678 |
| Children | 1. | Hannah Hooper b. 31 Mar 1662;
From a timing standpoint, Hannah could have been the daughter of William's first wife Elizabeth or his second wife Ruth. Ruth Hooper, according to the source, signed a document for the relinquishment of her dower on 14 Dec 1664, so had likely married William prior to that date. No assignment of any of the children's mother was provided in the source, and our assignments have not yet been proven, although Hannah's mother may be the most uncertain. In this project Hannah has been "assigned" to Ruth, our rationale resting solely on the number of years between the births of the children; three before Hannah and two after1 |
| | 2. | Elizabeth Hooper b. 20 Aug 1665, d. 3 Jan 1699;
Although not confirmed in the source, it is suspected by this researcher that Ruth, William's second wife, was Elizabeth's mother because Ruth Hooper signed the document for the relinquishment of her dower on 14 Dec 16641 |
| | 3. | Thomas Hooper+ b. 2 Apr 1668;
Although not confirmed in the source, it is suspected by this researcher that Ruth, William's second wife, was Thomas' mother because Ruth Hooper signed the document for the relinquishment of her dower on 14 Dec 16641 |

d. before 6 March 1709
| Marriage* | circa 1670 | She married John Leonard, son of Solomon Leonard and Sarah Chandler, circa 1670.2,4,5,1,3 |
| Relationship Note* | | Sarah's maiden name has not been identified, however we do know that she was not a daughter of Roger Chandler as claimed in the Leonard Memorial source. Sarah's husband John Leonard was a son of that Sarah Chandler and Solomon Leonard, and a grandson of Roger Chandler, so it was John's mother, and not his wife, who was Roger's daughter.6,3 |
| (Wife) Death | before 21 November 1699 | Sarah became a widow when John Leonard died before 21 November 1699, the date of the inventory of his estate.7,8 |
| Probate* | 23 January 1699/0 | The estate of Sarah's husband John Leonard, late of Bridgewater, was officially opened for probate in Plymouth County on 23 January 1699/0. Sarah and their son Joseph Leonard were appointed administrators of his estate.6 |
| Estate* | 30 August 1701 | According to the Chilton Mayflower source, in the division of her husband's estate, Sarah was to receive her thirds and son John, the eldest son's share. Other shares were allocated to sons Joseph, Enoch, Moses and Josiah and to their daughter Sarah when she reached the age of 18. On 30 August 1701 the widow Sarah and her sons John, Joseph and Josiah signed receipts. Unfortunately, the digitized version of his probate file contained no documents outlining the division of his estate or any receipts.6,9 |
| Marriage | 28 July 1708 | She married second widower Thomas Washburn, son of John Washburn and Elizabeth Mitchell, on 28 July 1708 in Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).10,11,12,13,14 |
| Death* | before 6 March 1709 | She died before 6 March 1709 when her son John sold the family homestead to his brother Moses. John had received the property from his father's estate, although it was to be held with his mother during her lifetime.6,15 |

Maltby of Redwood City, California, who we believe has presented his own research; the website contains thorough source information and appears to be an excellent resource for the Massachusetts Colony Washburn Family History. The website includes additional family lines as well. Regarding the Washburns, the only family line on the website reviewed by this researcher, much of the information presented appears to be in line with information already obtained and is believed to be accurate. For that reason, additional information obtained only from the Maltby Family Genealogy website has been included in this collection. Information provided, unless additional proof has been offered, has not yet been verified and cannot be guaranteed. Hereinafter cited as the Maltby Family Genealogy Website.
