There are no direct descendants of George "the Signer" Ross who descended carrying the Ross name. That line is well documented. Sorry. Lots of family claim a connection but it is just that, family lore. --Dick Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 01, 2000 7:16 PM Subject: [ROSS-L] James ROSS Hello, I'm beginning to think there should be a mailing list for researchers of James ROSSes only! Mine is James M., born abt 1734 where? He died in 1801 in Somerset Co, PA and some claim that he is James ROSS, grandson of the Signer, George ROSS, but no one has produced one shred of evidence to support that claim. There is circumstantial evidence to indicated that the families were at least associated, but not enough to draw conclusions. Can anyone convince me otherwise?
