Rose Ann was a niece of Patrick Bronte, father of the famous sisters, and preached at Whitechapel during the time that he was Curate at nearby Hartshead Church. Rose Ann's 90 year old great-grand-daughter, Mrs Olive Kellet visited the grave shortly after it had been discovered with four generations of her family.
A Songs of Praise thanksgiving service is to be held on the 8th July at 3pm.
