Well Known War Veteran, Formerly of Cuba, Passes Away in Rochester, 
of Dropsy.



Albert H. ROSE, formerly for many years a well-known resident of the 
Cuba community, and a member of Bartle post, G. A. R., of this place 
died on Tuesday of last week at his home, No. 3 Schlitzer street, 
Rochester, to which city he and his wife moved from Cuba about six 
months ago. The cause of Mr. Rose's death was dropsy, with which he 
became ill about the beginning of December.  During the last week of 
his illness he was cared for by T. O. REGAN, a comrade of Bartle post. 
Some seven years ago, while living at Abbotts, Mr. Rose suffered a 
shock, which left him with one side paralyzed and affected his speech. 
The funeral took place on Thursday, December 24, and was under the 
auspices of the Grand Army people of Rochester. Interment was made in 
that city.

Mr. Rose at the time of his death was about seventy-seven years old, 
having been born in Farmersville, Cattaraugus county. He enlisted in the 
Union army at nineteen years of age and served three years, taking part 
in the Battle of the Wilderness, Gettysburg, and other famous conflicts. 
He was wounded in the shoulder in the Wilderness struggle, and was later 
taken prisoner.

After the war Mr. Rose returned to his home in Franklinville, and there 
was married to Mary CAMERON, moving to Ohio, where Mr. Rose remained 
until some 20 years ago, where he returned to New York state. Of this 
marriage there survive one daughter Mrs. Ida WILLIAMS of Toledo, O., 
and one son, Joseph, of Atlanta, Ga. Soon after his return to New York 
state Mr. Rose was again married, his second wife surviving, but no 
children. Mr. Rose was a mason by trade and was employed in that 
capacity about Lyndon and Cuba for a number of years.

Buel ROSE of Franklinville is a brother of the deceased, and he also 
leaves a half-brother and two half sisters -- Fred ROSE of Arcade and 
Mrs. George COLE and Mrs. William COOPER, both of Rushford. Charles 
ROSE of this village is a nephew of the deceased.
