Ro Talia was a Bajoran woman, the wife of Ro Gale. The two had a daughter, Ro Laren, in 2340.

She was listed on her daughter's Starfleet personnel file and at one point her death certificate (before it was found Laren was not in fact dead) in 2368. (TNG: "Conundrum", "The Next Phase")

In 2369, when Ro Laren was temporarily turned into a child by a spatial anomaly, she took the time to enjoy a childhood she never had fighting the Cardassians, which included sketching a picture of her mother. (TNG: "Rascals")
