Thomas ROSEWARNE 1823-1895 is proving very elusive. Dates, names and places do not correspond or cross reference, hence I have my doubts about Emily GREAVES 1832-Deceased being the correct spouse.
My transcription of the England and Wales Census 1871 for the household of one Thomas ROSEWARNE 1823-1895 reveals the younger Emily ROSEWARNE 1865-1944 age 6 years.

Despite many hours research I am still to find a marriage for Thomas ROSEWARNE 1823-1895 and Emily ROSEWARNE and therefore unable to provide a maiden name for Emily, the wife of Thomas.
I recall my mother saying there are additional children to document over and above those recorded in the Census return.
Notes:
King Street is still shown on the current map of Sheffield though I doubt this is the same King Street referred to in this census return.
Updates:
2012-02-07 The probable reason for being unable to find a record of marriage between Thomas ROSEWARNE 1823-1895 and Emily GREAVES 1832-Deceased is that of not using a wild card in my searches. Rose* would have found a marriage between one Thomas ROSEWARD and one Emily GREAVES 1832-Deceased. Live and learn.
