STACY, this isn't my direct family, just my notes. I show Her last marriage with no kids was to my cousins SMITH family and my cousin may Not be active now? BLOOMINGTON TWN, DEC CO, IA Thought HANNAH was a MARTIN married a GREEN and had kids and married a SMITH after 1922.= no kids BUT, he (SMITH) had a child married a GREEN?=memory (earlier generation) And her mother was a ROSS/MARTIN/SMITH/COOK with a daughter JANIE SMITH in 1923 when Mother died Most of this info on Dec Co, Ia web page. IF you connect it all together. IF my notes are NOT correct, PLEASE email me mari@netins.net Till we get this straight. I believe we are related in other lines also. WHO do you connect to? GREEN child? ( I know I have this somewhere!, msh) I only have a few documents/census on Martins and ROSS families, but, we could check more census? HER mother remarried , so listed diff names? I really do Not have time to Search right now, but, will save any info you send and check out slowly. marie, iowa mari@netins.net -----Original Message----- From: Stacy Smith [mailto:slsmith@grm.net] Sent: Friday, July 30, 2004 6:36 AM To: IADECATU-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [IADECATU] Ross Surname Is anyone working on the Ross surname? If so, Would you happen to know anything about a Hannah Jane Ross, born Aug. 3, 1855. I know she married Perry Commadore Green (who died in 1921). Hannah may have remarried a Mr. Martin after Perry's death. I am unsure where Hannah was born, or who her sibblings or parents were. She passed away Oct 20, 1930. She is buried in Elk Cemetery, Decatur County, Iowa. Would you happen to have any information on her? I would love to know more about her. Thank you for your time.
