Hi Victoria,
I think we used to write to each other, my name is Carol, I am a daughter of Doris nee Roscoe.Mum died in August 2007 and Aunty Dot died early the following year.Not long before Mum died I had done a lot on her family at her request.Granddad was born 1879 to a Margaret Coonen/r an Irish Catholic girl working in Manchester as a servant. In 1881 Margaret gave birth to a girl called Lily in Chorlton Workhouse.In 1883 Margaret married Walter Roscoe and also in 1883 had a son Albert Edward. So our family surname was not originally Roscoe. We have on that side of the family Irish decent,The Groome side is another who story if you are interested in knowing more please get in touch I would love to hear from you.
