Her first name may have been Rosell.
Mrs C.H. Patterson was the plot owner according to cemetery records.
Rosella L. Powers, at age of 13, arrived in what is now Sheridan County, from Hale, Missouri in the late fall of 1886. Her folks spent the first winter on Twin Creek near a butte referred to as Columbus Creek Butte. The following spring, they moved to Pass Creek and homesteaded.
Rosalla obtained her education in Ursaline Convent at Miles City, graduating at age 18. She taught two years at the Ohlman School on Five Mile Flat, and married a neighbor, Herbert L. Dana. They built a home on Herbs Creek and had three daughters, Irene, Beatrice and Harriet. Harriet was born after the death of her father.
Rosalla tried to support the family on the ranch, but after three years, she sold her holdings to a neighbor, Cliff Woodley, and moved to Sheridan
Year 1901, they lived on Gladstone Street waiting for the construction of a new home at 350 West Works. The home was built large enough for them to accommodate boarders, as that would be the means of their livelihood. Some of the star boarders were the late dentist, I.P Hayes, James Withrow, and Ball and hersig, the owners of the Past Time Theater. There were some avid boxers that stayed, and they had a punching bag in their room. The chandeliers throughout the house would shake many evenings.
Rosalla married one of the boarders, Chase H. Patterson.
