Rootschat does not allow 1911 or 1939 lookups for copyright reasons

Have you tried using Family Search for the 1911 entry

Parents marriage was 1921 per freebmd

As Rosie was only 17 in 1939 her entry will be redacted until it's known when she died & records are updated

Look for siblings.
Tell us when/where the parents wed.
Give us SOME idea of how old they should be.

Given the 1922 child was Rose Edith, try looking for the mother as Edith Ros*.

There is a Rosie Mellish aged 13 - a patient in Sussex Hospital, Brighton - born Brighton. She should be on 1901 if age is correct. (In 1911)
Places of interest;
Lancashire, West Yorkshire, Southern Ireland, Scotland.

Good thinking Pauline - candidate in 1900 on freebmd but would suggest purchasing the 1921 marriage cert to check fathers name

Longshot - could surname have been Melhuish which possibly sounds like Mellish or Mellis when spoken?
