Oh hi. Harry was my great-grandfather through my fathers side. His grandson, Wilbur Joseph Smith, was my grandfather, from Harry's daughter Arvena Hilda Ross (Harry's wife was Florence Mellisa Romans - I'm sure you know that).

I am very interested in your search because it's somewhat similar to my search. My dad's last name is Ross. He died in 1985 when I was 5 years old. I don't know much about him or is family.

Through Ancestry DNA, I was able to connect with some 2nd ...

Thank you so much for responding. Here's all the information I was able to gather thus far...

Also, I am doing some family research and have came across my 3rd great-gradfather, Joseph Ross. I found a marriage record for one of his daughters and says his birthplace was Italy. His birth date is November 21, 1863. He also ...
