Their first child Elizabeth Ross was baptised at Christ Anglican in l820. Sadly they had seven children after her but none lived past the age of llyears. William Ross passed away on May 4th, l830 at the age of 42 which would mean he was born in around l788. I do not know his place of birth and have been unable to find his birth in Non Catholic births of Montreal in that time period. It is possible that it is just an error in listing. He died in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I am afraid that is all the information I have on him except that he was a cooper. I would love to hear from anyone who knows of a William Ross who might fit mine or any related to him. thank you very much for taking the time to read this posting. My mother in law is also a Ross and she is still living in Scotland. My husband is named after his grandfather who died in the first battle of the Somme and is very proud of the name. I was thrilled to find out that I had the same name in my family. Linda
