Bio
Early Life
Born July 23, 1874, at 78 Cambridge Terrace, Paddington, England, to parents Frederick Festus Kelly and Blanche Bradford Kelly. She was the first child, with two siblings, Eleanor Constance Mary and Gerald Festus. In 1880, the family moved to Camberwell Vicarage, where her father served as the curate for the Parish of St. Giles for the next 35 years.
In 1895, Rose escorted her brother Gerald to Cape Town, South Africa, where he convalesced from a liver ailment during the winter of 1895-96. In 1901, widowed after a two year marriage to one Major Skerrett (described consistently as an "older man"), she joined her brother Gerald in Paris, where she stayed six months.
