Maybe this will help to fill in some blanks for someone here. His first wife died in 1838 and he remarried to Mary Bryan STAPLER, a young woman 36 years his junior. She was the daughter of John and Ann B. STAPLER. They were married 2 Sep 1844 at Philadelphia, PA. She died on 20 Jul 1865 - a year prior to the death of John Ross. She was born in 1825. Their children were: Annie ROSS - b. 1845 - she possibly married a man named PIBURN because of one of the notes showing info from the "Anne Ross Piburn Collection" - this is just a guess. John ROSS Jr. - b. 1847. He attended a boys academy in Nazareth, PA and the Lawrenceville Classical and Commercial High School. I haven't yet found any further info about these two children from the book. --------------81B38C619CD5C50F59DB9AF9--
