About Rosa M. Holiday

Mrs. Rosa Marie Spann Holiday was the fourth child and first girl born to Ora and Thomas Spann on August 18, 1940 in Rembert, South Carolina. She was nicknamed “Bay” for baby girl because Rosa soon had six brothers before another girl was born to the family. During her childhood, Rosa, like many other children her age, worked along side her family in the cotton fields of South Carolina.
