Posted on: Ross Family Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/Ross/518 Surname: ------------------------- My Ross was born in ILL or Canada in 1878. Mabel was left after 1918 and I believe that they thought that the Mr. Ross was deceased and applied for benefits. I have to check with her daughter in law. Mr. Ross died in 1944 and Mabel died in December 1957-58. Thank you for responding.
