Wow you're amazing Sandra, thank you! At least Rowland the father still had the middle name Hill. I guess Rose didn't like the name, a bit like my wife put her foot down with our son. I wanted to be Thomas Dowdeswell Pine (the 4th), but she refused. We settled on my father's name instead.  :)

Yes, it appears he was a merchant seaman for a little while. I don't have a date of birth for Rose, other than approximations from the census records. Also I don't know if that was he arrived to stay in the US because  I found their marriage record in England in 1918.

Yes, have just come across the marriage record - if he was part of a ships crew, then he maybe wouldn't show entering the UK - haven't seen anything yet under Rowland or Roland.
