Poetess or Poet

Family stories tell of Ophelia being a poet, I have found one reference to this in the 'Leicester Chronicle' November 1873( page 8).

This is her obituary and quotes one of her sonnets called 'Sonnet To Summer',

The article talks of her several poems published in that newspaper, but to date I have only found the one.

Her grand Uncle Charles was a published poet.

Google Books has a copy of a book of his poems http://books.google.co.nz/books/about/Poems.html?id=NTVYAAAAcAAJ&redir_esc=y

Or there is more info at http://www.charlesrozzell.com/ a website written by Duncan Patrick.
