Greetings, mamahop!
First of all, I will let you know that your pattern is Flintridge's
Delrose; if it looks exactly like
http://image1ex.villagephotos.com/pubimage.asp?id_=1906032
it is the Delrose (Rim); if it doesn't have a rim, it is the Delrose
(Coupe).
I found the 3 patterns which I suggested to you by searching the site
of one of the best discontinued china companies out there,
Replacements.com.
http://www.replacements.com
This site DOES have a search facility, but searching on "Flintridge
Rose" only brings up patterns in which "Rose" is a word all by itself.
This only brought up a list of 28 patterns, and since I looked at
these and was not sure that your pattern was among them, I started
looking through all the Flintridge patterns, choosing names that I
thought might go with the pattern that you described. That's how I
found "Delrose".
http://www.replacements.com/china/FL.htm
The list of Delrose (Rim) pieces that Replacements has available for
sale -- and their prices is here:
http://www.replacements.com/webquote/FL_DELR.htm
and the Delrose (Coupe) pieces are here:
http://www.replacements.com/webquote/FL_DELC.htm
So, here is the price for which Replacements would sell all your
pieces:
Dinner plates 12 $49.99 $599.88
Salad plates 9 $25.99 $233.91
Cups & Saucers 14 $33.99 $475.86
Saucer only 1 $9.99 $ 9.99
Creamer $49.99 $ 49.99
Sugar with lid $59.99 $ 59.99
Salt $39.99 $ 39.99
Pepper $39.99 $ 39.99
Gravy boat $159.95 $159.95
with plate attached
Relish platter $64.95 $ 64.95
with silver handle
Serving bowl, $89.95 $ 64.95
oval 10" x 8" x 2"
I am not sure whether your dessert plates are actually salad plates or
bread and butter plates:
Salad plates 8 $25.99 8-5/8" $207.92
OR
Bread & butter plate 8 $17.99 6-3/8" $143.92
Unfortunately, Replacements does not show a price for the Teapot with
lid; however, based on the gravy boat price, I am guessing it would
sell for at least $199.99.
As you can see, we are talking about a serious chunk of change here
(around $2,143.36 if you have the smaller dessert plates).
However, you need to bear in mind that Replacements will make their
profit by paying you only (and I'm just guessing) around 1/3rd (~$715)
of what they will charge for the pieces -- and the condition of your
pieces will have an effect on whether they would be willing to buy
them at all, and if so, for how much.
The link to find out how much they would pay for your set is here:

I did find a few other sites that also deal in this pattern; selling
prices for each piece vary somewhat among these sites.

Now, if you are interested in selling your set, I would recommend that
you take some good pictures of it, get several copies of each (or get
them in digitized format for e-mailing), and send a list of your items
with the pictures to each of the companies above asking them how much
they would be willing to offer for the set.
Take the best offer you get. If the best offer does not include all
the pieces, offer those pieces to the other companies (or take the
best offer which will buy all the pieces, if you want to save yourself
a little extra hassle of mailing and communicating).
