Hello to all, I am searching for the descendants and/or ancestors of William Mitchinson ROSS first son of Thomas ROSS and Jane Mlitchinson, born on 29 Sep 1842 in Carlisle, Cumberland, England. Jane and her second James went to New York City about 1862 and then to Kingston, Ontario in 1863. I have listed what we have found for our Ross family from Carlisle, Cumberland; William Mitchinson is # 10. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
