The informant was her sister Ellen, living at 65 St John's Terrace, London. My friend has the will of Roseanna naming her sister Ellen as executor. In 1911, here is Ellen:

Both daughters have mmn Peat, father James Harris, butler at birth. By their marriages (both on same day) he is a deceased clerk.
And in 1901:

So who are Rosanna and Ellen Harris? I cannot find a marriage of an Ellen Peat to a James Harris. Either Ellen was not a sister to Rosannah, but a sister-in-law, and James Harris was the brother of Rosannah. Or Ellen was a half-sister and the children were brought up under a different name.
The only likely family with the two girls is this one:
HARRIS, John Head Married M 33 1828 Whitesmith
Henley in Arden Worcestershire
HARRIS, Matilda Wife Married F 31 1830
Henley in Arden Worcestershire
HARRIS, Emily Daughter F 12 1849 Scholar
Ashton Under Hill Worcestershire
HARRIS, Frances Daughter F 9 1852 Scholar
Henley in Arden Worcestershire
HARRIS, Arthur Son M 6 1855 Scholar

But this Rosa Harris married Jesse Tibbles in 1881:

This Rosa Ann has a father John Harris, a bellhanger. And he is a bellhanger in 1871:
