David A Ross/ Elizabeth McKenzie family info needed

David A Ross/ Elizabeth McKenzie family info needed

Looking for info on the family of David A Ross born about 1882/3. His mother's name was Isabella but found two Ross families - James & Isabella and William & Isabella.
David married Elizabeth McKenzie and was buried in Lennoxville. He shares a stone with Donald Ross and his wife Euphremia Topping. David and Elizabeth had a daughter named Armanilla Ross.
Would appreciate any help in finding the correct parents and siblings.
Thanks in advance.
Sue Sarrasin

1921 INVERNESS, MEGANTIC, QUEBEC
ROSS
David A., age 33,
Elizabeth, age 39, wife
Armandella, age 9, daughter
Doris, age 4, daughter
Isabella, age 78, mother
all born Quebec

1911 INVERNESS, MEGANTIC, QUEBEC
ROSS
Isabella, age 60, born June 1851 Quebec widow
Donald, age 31, son born Nov. 1879 Quebec single
David, age 28, son born July 1883 Quebec, single
Elizabeth, age 30 daughter in law born May 1881 Quebec, married

so both sons shown single but we know that David was married to Elizabeth

you mentioned that David's headstone is shared with Donald, so seems he was his brother

1901 INVERNESS, MEGANTIC, QUEBEC
ROSS
Isabella, age 44, born June 21, 1856
Nellie, age 22, daughter born April 27, 1878
Donald, age 21, son born Nov. 24, 1879
David, age 18, son born July 18, 1882 (might be 13th)

all born Quebec

1891 INVERNESS, MEGANTIC, QUEBEC
ROSS
Isabella, age 40, widow
Ellene M., age 17, daughter
William, age 14,son
Donald, age 11,son
Alexander, age 7,son
all born Quebec

so she was widowed pretty young, but should be with husband in 1881

1881 INVERNESS, MEGANTIC, QUEBEC
ROSS
William, age 55, born Ireland
Isabella, age 34, born Quebec
Agnes, age 11, born Quebec
Ellen, age 6, born Quebec
William, age 4, born Quebec
Donald, age 2, born Quebec
BURNS
William, age 9, born England
relationships are not shown so no idea who William Burns is

There is a death for William Ross of Inverness - died age 68 years on the 21st of July 1889 - witnesses Isabella and Ellen Ross

so age off from census but that is often the case
Donald's baptism shows father William Ross, mother Isabella Johnston

David Alexander Ross baptism shows father William Ross, mother Isabella Johnstone

Ellen - same parents William Ross, Isabella Johnston
Agnes - same parents William Ross and Isabelle Johnson
William - same parents William Ross, Isabella Johnson

Armanda Isabella Ross was born Megantic , baptized Aug. 6, 1912, born May 22, 1912, to David Alexander Ross and wife Elizabeth McKenzie, witnesses Donald Ross and Euphemia Ross

Doris Bertha Martha Ross was born April 30, 1917 to David Alexander Ross and Elizabeth Ross, nee McKenzie, and baptized Aug. 3, 1917, David and Elizabeth signed, no other witnesses shown

Donald and Esphemia are in 1921 census

1920 AYERS CLIFF, STANSTEAD, QUEBEC
ROSS
Donald, age 42, born Quebec
Esphemia, age 39, wife, born Quebec
William, age 8, son, born Quebec
Donald Cord, age 5, son, born Quebec
Emma, age 3, daughter, born Quebec
Edwald Cecil, age 1,daughter born Quebec

I gave the names as indexed, but Edwald Cecil is something closer to Eugene Pearl or ??? Esphemia is Euphemia

I found a marriage for Donald Ross and Euphemia Topping in Kingston, Frontenac Co. Ontario June 29, 1912
his parents match - William Ross and Isabella Johnston
their son William was born there May 14, 1913
