Title: John Ross 1786-1863 Born Rudgeley Staffs
Post by: yffor on Friday 30 October 20 14:23 GMT (UK)
I would be grateful if anyone could help me with details of parents of John Ross 1786-1863. According to the 1851 census he was born in Rudgeley Staffordshire. He was living Caerhun Carnarvonshire and working as a Hatter at this time. He died in Conway Register District in Jan-Mar 1863.
Many Thanks

As Mary plus children were born Carnarvon - this may be his marriage.  Still doesn't help with his parentage though ???
