    3. Hi all I have finally subscribed again after a couple of months away and for those on this list who have seen this before, I apologise, however, I need to repost my interests, in case someone new has any information. I am researching the family of Hugh Ross and Margaret Fraser. According to Hugh's death certificate dated 1867, his parents were Donald Ross and Janet MacKay of Lairg. His widow was Margaret Fraser. I have been able to find no marriage of Hugh to Margaret Fraser yet. I have Hugh and Margaret's children, some of whom emigrated to New Zealand. The others are buried with their parents in Lairg Cemetery. I have a Donald Ross, son of John Ross, this could be Hugh's father although I have no idea, at this stage, who the mother would be. I also have an enigma. Willie Ross, son of Margaret and Hugh, had a photograph signed 'from your sisters Jessie and Barbra'. We have found no sisters, Jessie and Barbra yet. They are not buried with Hugh and Margaret. I hope someone new to this list can help me with this one. I have had help from others on the list in the past. My dream is to connect with someone in the family who stayed in Sutherland, who would know more of the Scottish side of the family. The eldest son, Donald (Donat on Hugh's death certificate) stayed in Scotland, marrying, I believe, Kennethina Dingwall and having three children that I know of.
