Hi Helen, there are no ROSS' in that book, but there's a handful of them in my other book listing them at the Lawrence Co. Children's Home. The names are: Fred ROSS, a deputy police officer who helped a young girl out of an abusive home, Ironton, 1895. Ida ROSS, mother of Garland Buffington LANGDON, born Sept. 1904. Ida died in 1911 and the child was taken by Ida's father, James R. ROSS, 15 Aug. 1911. J.M. ROSS, child William Riley PORTER was placed with J.M.ROSS of Cannonsburg, Kentucky. Jack ROSS, the father of son John HAINES born 9 April 1873, Fayette Twp., Law. Co. Jno.ROSS, of Ironton took a boy named Floyd MILLER out of the Home 21 Jan. 1890, and returned him 21 Feb. 1890. John ROSS took a boy named Edward WOOLUM from the Home 11 Aug. 1892 on a trial. John ROSS lived in Bolts Fork, Ky. Mary ROSS, an aunt to a child named Genevieve EACHES born 20 April 1927 in Ironton. Genevieve was brought to the Children's Home from the care of her aunt, Mary ROSS, who lived at Yellow Branch. Mary ROSS is a sister to the child's mother. Mary made liquor, drank and was always in a fight. She has been in city and county jail on numerous occasions for drinking and fighting, would never be a fit person to have the child. The child's mother, Othell COLLINS was born 7 Sept. 1910 at Lawrence Furnace OH. of poor but respectable people. --April. --- On Mon, 11/3/08, harand8479@aol.com <harand8479@aol.com> wrote: From: harand8479@aol.com < Subject: Re: [OHLAWREN] William Harvey "Boggs - Stewart - Boggs" To: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com, ohlawren@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, November 3, 2008, 8:40 AM Hi April, In the book you have, is there by any chance any photos or mention?of Ross people??
