I seem to have started something rolling with ISABELLA MELLVILLE the one I have married GEORGE ROSS & had a daughter MARGARET ROSS in about 1813 if ISABELLA had a brother JOHN ROSS in about 1810 surely his offspring would be ROSS & ISABELLA MELVILLE 1836? would be from a different family or was she a relative help??
