name this rosebush

This is a picture of a rosebush in my mother's yard in Missouri, she had this rose at least from the late 50's or early 60's. She always called it a seven sisters rose. But it is red. it is about 4.5' feet tall and the canes form very early. The rose always blooms in clumps of seven blooms together, always. The blooms are usually about an 1" across or less. My mother has since passed away and the rosebush was dozed out before anyone could get a start from it. So if I could get a name so that I can find one. One guess was it was a red cascade miniature climbing rose but the blooms didn't match mine exactly.

This may be it. But, most of the pictures are not like yours and mine, with the small blooms. We do have some that could be started. Wouldn't know how to ship it, but would if you would like to try. Ours is zone 5, but have had my sisters in Southern FL take some and get them to grow.
