Early Life
Rose's early life is not described.

Marriage with Frank West
Frank West loved Rose Elliott very much. Frank adored her beauty, and 'worshipped the very ground she walked on'. Together, the two had Leslie and Kenneth West.

Motherhood
Leslie, her daughter, inherited Rose's beauty, and Frank's cleverness. Leslie loved her mother very much, and the girl also loved her father and brother very much. When Kenneth was killed by the wagon, Leslie was crushed... and so was Rose. A year later, when Frank died, Leslie was crushed once again... and Rose was as well, worse this time. Rose whooped and hollered at the funeral enough for two.

Widowhood
Rose's widowhood was not long. As it was, she did enough damage. Forcing Leslie to marry Dick Moore due to the fact that they could loose their land, she nearly ruined her daughter's life. Nonetheless, Leslie's 'clannishness' was thick enough that her kin could do no wrong, in her eyes.

Popularity in Four Winds
Rose was not liked much in Four Winds. Cornelia Bryant, in particular, thought Rose extremely weak and silly.
