Notes for JOHN ROSS:

[030402.ged]

 

It has been claimed that John Ross who married Elizabeth Griscom was Rev. Aeneas Ross's son but it seems to lack proof of any kind. This Elizabeth Griscom was known as Betsy Ross who made the first American flag. There is no explanation of the circumstances that she was an upholsteress living in a humble condition of life. Further information is necessary to justify any claim of relationship or connection with Ross of New Castle by Mrs. Betsy Ross. [Aeneas was buried with his father inside the church at New Castle.]

David Jarvis notes that there are many historical sources, including the official Delaware history site, which confuse this Mary with her aunt Mary, sister of George the Signer, who married Del. Gov. Gunning Bedford, Sr.

 

This Mary, who married into the Pearce family, is David Jarvis' ancestor and the sister of George Read II.

Notes for ALLAN MCLANE:

[030402.ged]

 

Dr. Allan had a son, Allan, who was also a Doctor. He married to Jane Kay and resided in Platte Co., Mo., for a short time before he died on the way to California. He is listed as "treating a dying man near Black Rock Canyon" and is known as "nephew of the Honorable Lewis/Louis McLane." I have only one child born two months after he died; Gertrude, Dec 13, 1849 [married to Levi A. Hurst] and his widow married to N. E. Wilkinson.

 

He is referred to as "Midshipman Allan" since there were/are so many Allans. He died near "Lawson's Ranch" - which is more commonly known as Lassen's Ranch, near Mt. Lassen in northern California.

Notes for GEORGE READ MCLANE:

[030402.ged]

 

Per Leach "Descendents":  Dr. McLane graduated M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1840; for some years he practiced his profession in Wilmington, DE, but later he removed to Waukesha Co., Wisc, where he settled.  He represented Waukesha Co., in both branches of the State Legislature.

 

From the South Carolina Historical and Genealogical Magazine, July 1946; "Later his widow lived in California where she married Dr. John A. Lockwood, a surgeon in the United States Navy."

 

 

From the South Carolina Historical and Genealogical Magazine, July 1946 - the author mistakenly names the father of Dr. George Read McLane as "Dr. George Washington McLane" of Wilmington, DE.  I have not seen this name anywhere else.
