"Januarii 24 die Elizabetha filia Mri Henrici Henley fuit Baptiz"
Gender Female Residence Leigh House, Winsham, Somerset, England - As a girl Elizabeth would have known and probably lived at least once her grandfather had died at Leigh House which it seems was being built by her grandfather during her younger years.
See this webpage for a history of the house, photos etc.
Died 19 Aug 1636 - Date in Somerset Notes & Queries, although book on Lyme Regis gives the date of her death as 1636.

Family Richard ROSE, b. Abt 1600, d. Abt 1658, Wootton Fitzpaine, Dorset, England (Age ~ 58 years)
Other Partners: Mary BRODREPP m. Aft 1636Married Between 1614 and 1625 - Date: estimated from (earlieset date) Richard's mother Faith Ellesdon was not married when her father wrote his will in 1599 and (latest date) Elizabeth had had 10 children by the time she died in 1636.
It seems likely 7 of the children, 3 sons and 4 daughters, died young. I wonder if 2 Roses buried in Winsham were two of these - Hanna, buried 3 July 1636 and Richard, buried 'October 22th' 1638.
Which children were of Richard with Elizabeth née Henley?
Elizabeth's father mentions John and 2 other sons (unnamed) - under 21 when he wrote his will on 13 March 1638/9. Her mother also mentioned 3 sons but names them all - John, William and Henry.
No Rose granddaughters mentioned, and Richard's will suggests all his daughters were under 18 when he wrote it, and so born no earlier than 1637. Both Richard's will and his mother'ss, therefore, suggest all the daughters of Richard were by a subsequent wife.
