Talk:Christina Ross (c1890)

Church
See http://www.archives.presbyterian.org.nz/Page195.htm. The only one likely to fit Douglas's description has almost no information: "ROSS, Rev.", who died 22 March 1911, and whose widow "J.L." was b 1841, d 1923.

If in NZ, her death was probably 1923/2089: Ross, Jane Lamont @ 84Y (though with a couple of years of age discrepancy), while his could be one of these from March 1911 (there being none on 21st, 22nd, or 23rd):
 * 1911/2663	Ross 	Alexander McKay 	68Y
 * 1911/3431	Ross 	Robert 	71Y

On the other hand, he might have died on the 22nd but overseas.

Registry has 19 marriages of a Jane who became Mrs Ross between 1870 and 1899. No grooms named "Robert" or "Alexander McKay". No plain Jane married any Alexander; Alexanders married Jane Mary Peck in 1878 and Jane Seed Capstick in 1896. '''No Jane Lamont ... was recorded as marrying any Ross between 1870 and 1924.'''

Going back to J.L., we have:
 * 1913/943	Jane Landreth 	Blakie m. John 	Ross

- but why restrict that to Jane? This may be unfruitful.
