Would like to know names of parents, siblings, and ancestors of my great grandmother Elizabeth (Libby) Ross who married James Kennedy 12 Feb 1890 in Kincardine, ON, at the home of her father who I believe was a farmer. Libby was a mid-wife. She and James lived in Calumet, Michigan for a number of years. Their seven children were born there. The family moved to Rosalind, AB, in about 1906. Libby died in Victoria, BC, in 1945. Any info about 'my' Ross people would be greatly appreciated.

My Grandfather was Alexander Ross who married Margaret Isabella Ritchie. They lived their lives in a Gourdon. My Grandfather was in the Royal British Navy all his life. His eldest daughter elizabeth was my Mother. I was born in Stonehaven in 1949. When I was age 3, my parents and two sisters immigrated to Canada, where we still reside. I still have lots of relatives in Scotland and have been back only once to visit my birthplace. I may be Canadian but Scotland will always be in my heart.
