Hello List Recently I received the Marriage Cert for Alexander ROSS & Delia DUNK, they were married 1863 in Sydney. Alexander ROSS is recorded as being born at Cape of Good Hope. My husband think this is in South Africa, is he right? A couple years ago, another researcher gave me the info that he was born 5 Jan 1841, Sydney, with the parents Alexander ROSS & Caroline, the year, 1841 ties in with his age on the marriage cert. I have searched the NSW BDM's, there is a record V18411610 47/1841 ROSS ALEXANDER JAMES HANNAH, but clearly the parents are not the same. I am also not sure of a death date yet, I was hoping to verify his parents & birth, as there are heaps of Alexander ROSS' on the BDM's There is also 4 other children listed for Alexander & Caroline betw 1843 & 1853 Happy Hunting for 2007 Cheers Melissa CHAPMAN - Leicester Eng, CHILDS - Hampshire Eng & Australia, COLE - Kent/Sussex Eng & Australia, DUNK - Sussex Eng & Australia, GANNON - Roscommon Ireland & Australia, HOGARTH - Australia only, HOUGAARD - Denmark, HOOK - Huntingdon & Kent Eng & Australia, LANGTON - Leicester Eng & Australia, MONKTON/MONCKTON- Kent Eng & Australia, REILLY-Antrim Nthn Ireland & Australia, SKINNER - Kent Eng & Australia, TEGG - Surrey & London Eng & Australia -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
