In 1898 she married Alfred Bascom who was of French Canadian ancestry but born in the United States. About 1905, Rose joined the circus life and became a lion tamer.
It is reported that she was clawed by a lion resulting in an infection that led to her untimely death around the year of 1915. She left behind her husband and their young daughter Agnes.[1]
