I'm looking for anyone with further information or a descendant of Rosetta Aves. I have a lot of info and certs to share, but am curious about the years 1875-1911 when I can find no trace of the families whereabouts. I have her life so far as follows:

Parents: Isaac Aves, Rosetta Parker
Sibling: Mary Ann Aves, born 1846
Born: 26 September 1842 West Row, Mildenhall, Suffolk
1851 census: West Row
1861 census: Cambridge (school mistress)
2 November 1863: has illegitimate daughter, Rosetta Alexandra Mary Huggins Anne Aves in Cambridge
10 April 1865: marries Joseph Pickup, "Professor of Music", in Sheffield, York
29 September 1869: has son Archibald Joseph Thomas Pickup in Yarmouth, Norfolk. Father Joseph is shown as "Eating House Keeper"
1871 census: Joseph, Rosetta, 'Alexandra', Archibald, (father) Isaac, (mother) Rosetta, (sister) Mary Ann all in Everton, Lancashire. Joseph shown as 'Musician', wife Rosetta shown as 'Actress'
7 September 1871: Archibald Pickup dies of Small Pox
27 November 1872: Beatrice Helena Pickup is born in Liverpool. Father Joseph is shown as 'A Musician'
April 1875: Isaac Aves dies in Liverpool
6 July 1875: Rosetta Pickup (widow) marries John Cleveland Beckett (Bachelor) in Sheffield, York. Note that both were previously married, both previous spouses seem to be still alive, and no record of divorce has been found.
[this is the last mention of Rosetta Aves Pickup Beckett I can find until the 1911 census. Daughter Alexandra marries Miles Leopold Murphy in Dover, Kent 14 Feb 1882. Daughter Beatrice Helena marries William George Canham in York in 1897. Beatrice Helena, husband William, daughter Beatrice Rosetta, and Aunt Mary Ann Aves are in Pancras, London in 1901. Daughter Alexandra marries Isador Joyel Smith in Portsmouth in 1902. Where did Rosetta go?]
1911 census: Nelly Rosetta Beck and John Cleveland Beck are found living in Fulham, London. with them are (sister) Mary Anne Aves, (daughter) Beatrice Canham, (granddaughter) Beatrice Rosetta Canham. Census shows Nelly Rosetta to have been the mother of FOUR children, three of whom are living. Who was the fourth??
1912: Rosetta Beckett dies in Fulham
1915: Mary Ann Aves dies in Fulham
1916: John C Beckett dies in Fulham
