Peter I, too, have had a lot of fun inspecting the bowl of spaghetti called ROSS. Trying to differentiate between all of the different ROSS families is about as easy as pulling out a toenail. I have found one Ross line from Canada, originally from England, Ireland and Scotland. I have found another group of the same name floating in from England to the Boston area, and another into the Carolinas and Virginia area. It seems that most of them have the same names, same birth dates and close dates of marriages. but alas and alack, none are related!!! Ain't we got fun??? James Thomas Ross b in Blount Co., TN must not have had any parents. There are other James Thomas Rosses, but they were born in KY, SC, NC and other seaports. My line does not show to have anyone named David, so that must be another group. KEEP DIGGING. and don't fret the big stuff, it is the small stuff that builds up to be the biggie. Best wishes and blessings. Henry
