Rosedale is in Bolivar County, if that is the one she is looking for.
However, if she is looking for Rosemont, consider that the last half of the
name, "mont" means mountain. Perhaps she might be content with something
of lesser grandeur, like a hill. There are 5 Rosehills in MS, one each in
Bolivar, Clarke, Jasper, Lauderdale and Newton counties. None of these
counties are very close to Corinth.

My ggrandfather, James S. Whittemore moved from Tuscumbia, Al with
third
wife Fanny, to Ms in the early 1900's. His daughter, Elizabeth Whittemore
married her husband,William Y. Wilson from her father's new home.(1910) My
mother can't recall where this was. She thinks it might be Rosedale but
thought the town was really Rosemont. I can't find a Rosemont in the list of
towns. I have tried to use the 1910 census but without a county it is hard.
J.S. died in Ms about 1915 and it may have been in Cornith which rings a
bell for some reason in my mom's memory. WE are really stuck and can't go
any further. Hopefully someone can help out.
Thanks,
