    1. [ROSS-L] ROSS family in ILLINOIS.
    2. Frances MacLeod
    3. Surnames: ROSS, BATCHELOR, MAY, ELNIKIS, PITT My grandfather Errington Ross has 6 brothers who left the highlands of Scotland in the mid 1800s never to return. Elliott ROSS settled in Chicago working for the railroad but took ill and died 1935.He had two sons (1) Earle ROSS who married Alice Woton in Crown Point Indiana 1919 and settled in Littlefalls ,Minnesota as the popular manager of the JCPenny store.and (2) Harold of whom I know nothing as yet. Elliott's widow Elizabeth's obituary lists family names which I hope someone will recognise: Her second husband the late John KENT, her daughters Gladys MAY,Isabel BATCHELOR (1918-1984), Betty ELKINIS and son John jnr (KENT?) Her sister Isabel PITT. A grandmother of 10 and great grandmother of 3 I feel sure she must live on in local memory.At the time she died (1963) aged 74 she was living in Wheaton.IL. Does anyone recognise any of these and do I have living relatives in America? Frances Inverness . ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
