PATRICK ROSE, member of the Board of Supervisors, is also one of the pioneers of Arizona, and is serving his
third term in this capacity. He was born in Las Lunas, New Mexico, March 19, 1858, his parents, W. H. and Mary
Fowler Rose, having been pioneers of that State. His father was one of the first to enlist in the Mexican War,
and served with distinction until its close. He was also connected with the official life of New Mexico for many
years, and wielded a strong influence in its political affairs. After having received a common school education,
Mr. Rose came to Arizona in 1874, but returned to Silver City in 1876. Two years later, however, he again came
to Arizona and settled in Globe, where he has since resided. He was associated with his father in law, Patrick
J. Shanley, in the Shanley Cattle Company for a number of years, but sold his interests to engage in mercantile
business. He conducted wholesale and retail meat companies for some time, and was also interested in real estate
and other enterprises, having been adirector and large stockholder in the Globe National Bank until it was merged
with the First National Bank. Mr. Rose was also one of the original owners of the Miami Townsite Company. He has
been for years actively interested in mining, and at the present time holds many valuable claims in the Globe-Miami
District. His record as supervisor during his several terms has been such that he is today one of the strongest
men politically in Gila County. Always interested in the civic welfare of Globe, he is at present a member of the
City Council, and is ever found on the side of progress. Mr. Rose is a member of the A. O. U. A. and B. P. O. E.,
and has been trustee of the latter order during several sears. He was united in marriage with Miss Sarah J. Shanley,
and they have three children, Will P., Maude Lillian and Anna Laura.
