----- Original Message ----- From: Don & Bev Froom To: ENG-DUR-SUNDERLAND-L@rootsweb.com Sent: August 27, 2004 9:35 PM Subject: Alexander ROSS The 1871 Census states that my great grandfather Alexander ROSS was married to Anne ROSS and living at 18 North Quay East, Monkwearmouth in the Ecclesiastical District of St Peters. Alexander was 34 years old, an engine driver and was born in Scotland. I would really appreciate it if anyone might be able to give me some suggestions on how I might trace back to where my Grandfather was born in Scotland. If anyone has access to the 1861 or 1851 census perhaps that would give me some more clues. Thank you for your assistance. Bev Froom
