p146  Dr. James Alexander Gamble.  The Rose Named ‘Liberty’. 
….The breeding promise of ’Liberty’ was recognised at once by the late E. G. Hill of Richmond, Indiana.  He bought the American rights soon after it was produced…..’Liberty’ is a brilliant, velvety crimson.  The Hills called their first bright scarlet improvement over ‘Liberty’, 'Richmond', to mark the place of its production.  The Montgomerys of Hadley, Massaschusetts, when they produced an even better, richer crimson ‘Richmond’, called it ‘Hadley’.   Dorner, to bring the glory of this rose line back to Indiana, called his glowing crimson rose Hoosier Beauty.  A few years later, the Verschurens of Holland, in order to have national credit for the deep bright red rose they produced from ‘Hadley’, called theirs ‘Etoile de Hollande’….. 
'Richmond' was by ‘Lady Battersea’, a daughter of ‘Liberty’ and ‘Liberty’ herself;  ‘Hadley’ had as seed parents both ‘Liberty’ and ‘Richmond’, and ‘General MacArthur’ as her pollen parent;’  Hoosier Beauty was by ‘Richmond’ and ‘Chateau de Clos Vougeot’ an outcross;  and ‘Etoile de Hollande’ was by ‘General MacArthur’ and ‘Hadley’…..

H. R. Darlington. Some American Roses in an English Garden. ‘Hoosier Beauty’ (1915) comes next. Grown under glass it is a most lovely deep crimson flower with a delicious perfume, and is worth so growing. Out-of-doors its habit is too straggling, its long, horizontally placed arms detracting from its value as a bedding rose, and though I keep a bed for the occasional perfumed flower it gives here, it is not a garden success.

Hoosier Beauty.  An intense rich dazzling scarlet with darker shadings. Acknowledged one of the best and most highly colored red roses. The beautifully formed buds and flowers have a texture like velvet and are deliciously fragrant. The plant is thrifty and almost never without flowers during the blooming season.
