Research completed by Helen Fitch Emery of Wayland, MA, in the 1960s and 1980s.

“Joanna Wyatt, wife of Thomas Rose, was almost surely born ca 1705/6, daughter of Jonathan Wyatt (1677- ?) and his wife Martha Vose, who were in the Stonington, CT/ Westerly RI by 1705.

Joanna was born between that couple's departure from Milton, Mass. about 1702 and the recording of 5 younger children's births in Stonington, Conn. 1707, 1709, 1711, 1713, 1717.

Joanna could possibly even be the "Gemina" bapt 3 Aug 1706 found in the records of the First Church in Stonington of Jonathan and Martha (Vose) Wyatt.

Supporting evidence is as follows:
Thomas and Joanna Rose named children Bashua, Martha and Mary, all names in the previous generation of the Vose family. Jonathan Wyatt's mother's name was Joanna Spurr. Preston adjoins Stonington. Joanna Wyatt definitely seems not to belong to the Connecticut Wyatt family, descendants of John of Hartford."²
