Hi .. I'm forwarding your email on to the ROSS mailing list and to Spirit who sent in the original query. L. Ross _____ From: RMW [mailto:ancestorhunt@sbcglobal.net] Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2006 12:33 PM To: lross@mnsi.net Subject: Re: [ROSS-L] ROSS, Rachel I find this interesting. Our Rosses were from Maryland, but I can't find a Rachel married to a Prather. However, in Kentucky/Virginia I have a Prather family married to a Ross descendant, Wonder if there is a connection.
