There is a story of the history of Northumberland on this site and there is a story of Capt. James ROSS and his army regiment. I thought that someone might be interested. I also found in a 1850 census on Boone Co.,Ind. these names: Samuel ROSS age 38,Physicisn, born in Ind. (FATHER) Sarah Ross age 32,born in Kentucky (MOTHER) Samuel Ross age 13,born in IND. (CHILD) Sarah Ross age 11,born in IND. (CHILD) Jacob Ross age 9,born in IND. (CHILD) Ellen Ross age 7,born in IND>.(CHILD) I found these on the following URL's http://searches1.rootsweb.com/usgenweb/archives/palnorthumberland/areahistory/bell0005.txt http://searches1.rootsweb.com/usgenweb/archives/in/boone/cencus/1850/pg0150b.txt I hope that this can be of help to someone. Unfortunately not my direct line. Elizabeth
