Biography contributed by Geoffrey Gillon

He was 28 and the son of Alexander Rose. He is remembered on the East Kilbride war memorial in Lanarkshire, Scotland. This stands at the roadside in Graham Avenue, The Village, East Kilbride. It takes the form of a Celtic Cross on a tapered shaft surmounting a three tiered plinth the whole mounted on a stone cairn with the names inset into the front of the memorial. The memorial was funded with public subscriptions and erected by the local parish. It was built on two acres of land gifted by Allan Barnes-Graham of Limekilns. There are 60 names for World War 1.
