As a Scottish surname, Rose is recorded in Scotland from the early 14th Century onwards; the family of Rose of Kilravock, near the town of Nairn, are believed to be a branch of the ancient de Ross clan. This family came originally from Yorkshire, England, and held a large amount of land in the northern part of Ayrshire during the 12th Century. Godfrey de Ros is the first of the name to be recorded in Scotland; he witnessed a charter in Gilmerton, near Edinburgh, in 1189. The marriage of Walter Rose and Elspet McKilican was recorded in Inverness in the Highlands in March 1654. The christening of one John Rose was recorded at Ardersier, near Inverness, in 1741.
