Rosina has not been found in a family context on the 1871 census. It is most likely she is the individual who appears as a Domestic Servant in the household of Thomas and Jane DUNNING at 3 Gladstone Terrace in the St Mary's district of Southampton, Hampshire. Her age seems to have been inflated slightly as she claims to be 14 years old.
Rosina married Frank Henry SIMS on 22 July 1879 at Christ Church, Southampton.
