Ozoldroser (May 2, 2015) advises that "Bishop's Lodge Roset's Rose" appears to be the same as other Australian foundlings "Adolphus Marks", "Annie Norris" and "William Whaite". Margaret Furness advises Jack Sampson's found HT "Beechworth" may have been the same.
A possibility may be ‘Killarney 1898 or one of its sports. Further information is sought.
