(519) 473-2666 Searching for ancestors 'r0 THE EDITOR To Sentinel readers: Does anyone know of any descen- dants of a William Ross, born in England about 1825. He came to Canada in 1851 and in 1867 was living at Lot 28, Concession 5, Kinloss Township. He was a shoemaker and farmer. William Ross was married twice. The first time was to Eleanor/Ellen (nee Mobbs) Jervis and second to Sarah Ann Harper. It is assumed that Eleanor/Ellen was a widow when she married Mr, Ross. There were children from both marriages. The family moved to Manitoba. Donald F. Stott, of 8929 Forest Park Drive, Sidney, B.C. V8L 5A7 would appreciate hearing from anyone who has any information on this family.
