James T. Ross of Jackson Township, is a native of Pennsylvania, and was born 
in 1824.  He came west in 1866, bought the present homestead and has resided 
there ever since.  He was married in 1863 to Elizabeth Stephenson, who died in 
1894.  Mr. and Mrs. Ross had five children, four sons and one daughter, all 
still at home.
Mr. Ross has taken a lively interest in public affaires ever since he came to 
the county, particularly has he been solicitous in educational matters, and to 
show their appreciation of him in this respect his neighbors have kept him 
elected to the office of school directors continuously for the past nineteen 
years.  Mr. Ross is now enjoying the rest he has so justly earned by his past 
active life.
