At the time of his naturalisation, Roselieb had lived in England for 23 years, having been born in Hanover on 20 March 1897 and had practised as an architectural sculptor and carver. At the time of naturalisation he had two sons, Louis Fitz (sic) Vai Roselieb (18 years of age) and Gustav Karl Roselieb (16 years of age). He worked at the Clayton Works in Kennington. At the time of naturalisation Roselieb’s address was in Clapham.|group=nb}}
Louis Roselieb attended Westminster City & Guilds College before entering the Royal Academy Schools, where in 1905 he was won a two year Landseer Scholarship for sculpture.{{cite book|author=James Mackay|publisher=Antique Collectors' Club|year=1977|title=The Dictionary of Western Sculptors in Bronze |isbn= 0902028553}} Once he started to practice, his studio was located at "The Studio" in Clapham, London.[http://sculpture.gla.ac.uk/view/person.php?id=msib2_1220272162&search Louis Frederick Roslyn.] Mapping the Practice and Profession of Sculpture. Retrieved 26 August 2012.
From 1906 to 1916 Roslyn worked at The Standard Plating Works in Rosebury Avenue. He was a "Sculptor and Electra Metallurgist".Louis Frederick Rosleib's Royal Air Force Service Record AIR 76, Reel 436, National Archives, Kew. He enlisted in the Royal Flying Corps in 1915 under the name of Louis Fritz Roselieb. At the time of his enlistment he was 38 years and 5 months old and his height was 5 feet 6.1/2 inches. His wife was Ethel Roselieb and they had three children, Claude Frederick (12 years), Edward George (9 years) and John Bleckly (3 1/2 years).
At some point during his military service Roselieb changed his surname to Roslyn. It is not entirely clear when this decision was made; the statue of Edward VII had been done under the name Roselieb in 1911, whereas his work on the Imperial Buildings in 1914 was signed Roslyn.File WO 339/108338. The National Archives, Kew.
Roslyn executed sculptural work for many war memorials in England and Wales. He also executed war memorials for Trinidad in the West Indies and for Cape Town in South Africa.{{cite book|author=Derek Boorman|title=At the Going Down of the Sun: British First World War Memorials| publisher=William Sessions Limited|year=1988|isbn=1 85072 041 X}} The Duchess of York and Duchess of Connaught were among those of whom he was commissioned to do portrait busts.[http://www.uea.ac.uk/~t009/ArtistBiography.htm Louis Roslyn.] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110610172410/http://www.uea.ac.uk/~t009/ArtistBiography.htm |date=10 June 2011 }} PMSA Artists' Biographies.

=Military service=
The young Roselieb, who often added "Vai" to his full name, enlisted in the Royal Flying Corps on 12 December 1915 and he described himself when enlisting as "a sculptor and living in Clapham" and to be working as "a sculptor and electra metallurgist". Rosyln was passed as fit to work on "electro deposition of various metals for use in connection with Aero Engines" and was deemed medically "fit for service anywhere but not combatant service". In his records, and with no explanation, it was stated that Lord Derby did not want Roslyn called up before 1 June 1917.
Having enlisted, Roselieb was put on the reserve, and in June 1917 was called to the School of Military Aeronautics, Royal Flying Corps, Reading, as an Equipment Officer, 3rd Class on probation. As a result of this appointment Roselieb was gazetted as a Temporary 2nd Lieutenant under the name Louis Frederick Roslyn. Subsequently he was promoted to Lieutenant.[http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/30117/supplements/5599 Supplement to London Gazette] London Gazette. Retrieved 26 August 2012.
