Rosalind Nash
Rosalind Nash, née Smith (1862–1952) was a relative and confidante of Florence Nightingale. She assisted in some of Nightingale's publications, and wrote on her behalf to Karl Pearson, when Pearson was writing his biography of Francis Galton.
Rosalind Smith was the elder daughter of Florence Nightingale's cousin W. Shore Smith (afterwards Shore Nightingale), whom Florence Nightingale "regarded almost as a brother". Lady Stephen, the wife of Sir Harry L. Stephen, was her younger sister.[1] She married the progressive economist Vaughan Nash.[2] After Nightingale's death, Vaughan played an important role gathering and copying her correspondence.[2]
She is buried with her husband in Wellow graveyard.[2]
