Ross 30391/30827 is the son of James Ross 20828. He is my dead end on that linage. I know he married Hannah Moore (Moore-79283) in NJ and had several children. He moved to PA near Philadelphia for several years and then to Dallas, Luzerne, Pennsylvania. Hanna is in the Ross Bible but James 20828 is not. We also know he was a Revolutionary War Veteran. We can't find his parents or birthplace or birth date.
