Did she have children? Besides her birth year, what other info do you have on her?

Thank you for all of your work finding Rose Tompkins' marriage. Unfortunately, none of them seem right. Her father was Paul Tompkins, born in Pennsylvania and mother Laura Hartzell, born in Ohio. Maybe she was a modern woman and just lived in sin, so to speak.
Thanks again
Lynda

Tried searching Family Search Oregon marriage collections for these ten couples and turned up not one of them in any combination of Surname with spouse Rose or Ruth. I didn't try Rose Sides etc since listing her mother as Nevin makes me think it is highly unlikely she is the right person.
Darn again.

In 1920, we find 7 “Ruth” entries born in Oregon ca 1894, mother born Ohio, who are married:
Ruth E Bowder, Portland, (father b Oregon) husband, D Frank
Ruth Frank, Portland, (father b PA) husband Aaron (1930 indicates they have been married about 13 years)
Ruth E Johnson, Seaside, (father b Oregon) husband, Oscar J (1930 has them married 10 years)
Ruth Mehlin, Burlingame, San Mater County, California (father b Wisconsin) (b 1893) husband Arthur C)
Ruth V Pierce, Lakewood Ward 3, Cuyahoga, Ohio, (father b Ohio) husband Harry L (b 1893)
Ruth Probst, LA, LA County, CA, (father b Iowa) husband Lloyd
Ruth A Van Cleve, Central Howell, Marion County, Oregon, (father b Switzerland) husband Vernon B
The only “choice” here, given the parameter of father’s birthplace, is Ruth Frank, in Portland. However, she and Aaron have a son, Richard S, who is 1 year, 11 months old. The enumeration is dated 6 Jan 1920, which means he was born ca Feb 1918.
Dang.
Using “Rose” we find three:
Rose Hunt, Moscow, Idaho, (father b PA), husband Lenord P (Lemuel in 1930, married about 12 years, oldest dau is 10)
Rose Sides/Siden/Sidor/Nevin (whew), Vallejo, Solano County, California, husband not present, mother is Cora Nevin.
Rose Zimmerman, Bethel, Kitsap County, WA, father born Ohio, husband is Hary (Harry C in 1930 married about 12 years, oldest son is 6)
