I find reference to this rose in The Gardeners' Monthly and Horticulturalist of January, 1884, p.7.

A gardener, a Mr. Rolker, wrote to the magazine as follows about "the new rose, Andre Schwartz:: "The flowers that were of a fine crimson color last spring...are showing this fall a marked tendency to sports into lighter shades. I have noticed in a few even an approach to pure white. ...one bush, that at first flowered a deep crimson, is now turning towards a pale rose. ...Upon inquiry, Mr. Schwartz, of Lyon, gives the parentage as Tea Rose Souvenir de David d'Angers x Hybrid Perpetual General Jacqueminot.

There is no indication as to where Mr. Rolker may have lived.

Thanks for the publicity, Although we have this rose in our collection we will not release it to the public until we are sure it is correct. The clone came from Fineschi
