Hi, am sorry that I am unable to help you but perhaps your notes can help me. I am interested in finding out about James Foster. He was a partner-owner of the Foster Ross Store in Auburn NY sometime before 1913. This store (also called the Big Store) was also owned by my GGrandfather, James F. Ross, who died in 1913. To date have not been able to learn anything about Mr. Foster, although I believe I have a picture of the two families together. I would appreciate any info you might be able to share. Thanks, Sharon Ross Loysen [email protected] wrote:YES!!! Yes, Yes Yes!!! Thank you! We had begun calling our 3rd great grandmother Missy, because nowhere could we find her first name, only references to "Miss Foster". She's Mary! Thank you!
