Katherine GROSSE m. Capt. Burns Maryland ~1800

1_ecsutton — 2013-03-11 17:52:36Z

I am searching for information on the family of Katherine GROSSE who according to family records married a Captain BURNS (first name unknown) probably around 1800.

The only definite information I have been able to track down is that she appears in the 1850 census as "Catherine BURNS" in ward 6 of Baltimore Maryland where she is listed as age 76, which would put her birth date as about 1774.

Her daughter Mary Ann BURNS married John H. TUCKER in 1829 and Catherine/Katherine is living with them in 1850.

I have found no connection to either the Pennsylvania GROSS families or the western Maryland GROSS families.

My instinct says that there is a connection to Roger GROSSE/GROCE/DEGROSSE (b. 21 Dec 1616) b. England, immig. 1637, who received a land grant in 1658 for Gross’ Coate, Talbot Co., MD. I have not found any proof of such a connection.

Gross' Coate subsequently became property of the TILGHMAN family, and there is a connection between the TILGHMAN family and a Richard CARTER of Talbot Co., MD. Our family tree also has an Ann Trumble CARTER (married 19 Nov 1805 in Baltimore Co., MD to John TUCKER, immigrant, father of John H. TUCKER, above).

Any information about any of these people would be greatly appreciated.

Gross, Peter

GROSS John P. 1915-2012 Mansfield, Ohio

Contribution — 2012-12-12 14:20:05Z

MANSFIELD: John P. Gross, age 97, quietly passed away Monday, December 10, 2012.

John was born in Mansfield, Ohio Richland County) on November 14, 1915 to the late John and Karoline (Hess) Gross.

He served his country in the U.S. Navy during WWII performing various duties in a large warehousing facility in Argentia, Newfoundland supplying frozen fish to the U.S. Navy submarines.
Returning to Mansfield, he began a career in the accounting field.
He retired as Vice-President of Bank One (formerly Farmers Bank), operated the John P. Gross Company and was the Business Manager for the Draffan Family Partnership until he retired at age 94.

While not at work in his career of accounting, he would travel the country in their motor home with his wife Miriam, whom was an accredited floral judge, to participate in flower shows and assist in her judging competitions. While on those excursions, John would walk the shorelines, woods and prairies looking for the perfect stone, branch, or flower that would offer that unique appearance to catch the judges' eye.

In his spare time, he enjoyed fishing, hunting and woodworking. He often said with love that his most difficult task was maintaining the floral gardens at his home to Miriam's' rigid standards. All agree they did an exceptional job in those regards.

John was a 65 year member of Mansfield Masonic Lodge #35 F & AM, joining in 1947 and was a 32nd degree Mason. He was a member of the Scottish Rite, Valley of Columbus, Mansfield Rotary-where he was Past President and his beloved Men's Garden Club.
John volunteered his time as treasurer of the Mansfield Cancer Society.
He was a long-time member of St. John's United Church of Christ.

In addition to his parents, John was preceded in death by his wife of 75 years, Miriam Berlo Gross in 2011 and daughter, Melodie Gross Wineland in 1998.
He is survived by son-in-law, Read Wineland; a special cousin, Randy (Mary Ann) Jacobs and family; several cousins including Sally O'Reilly, Kathleen Huston, Kathie (Larry)Marsh and Don (Liz)Maxwell.

Friends and family may visit from 4-6 p.m. Friday, December 14, 2012 at the Diamond Street Home of Wappner Funeral Directors, 98 S. Diamond St., Mansfield where Masonic services will be held at 4:00 p.m. A memorial service conducted by Pastor Steven Storkel will follow the visitation at 6:00 p.m. Burial will be in Mansfield Cemetery at a later date.

Memorial contributions may be made to the McGowan Courage Award, c/o Mansfield Rotary, PO Box 3918, Mansfield, OH 44907 or Kingwood Center in Mansfield, Ohio, a 47 acre former estate garden open to the public since 1953.
900 Park Avenue West • Mansfield, Ohio 44906

The family wishes to thank the staff at Winchester Terrace for the wonderful care given to John during his stay.

Stouch59348 — 2012-12-12 00:38:13Z

Sorry I didn't see your post until today. If you've been reserching the Wendel Gross family,have you seen his will? In it he names as one of his daughters Anna Eva. Eva Gross(1777-1858) married Frederick Stough(1774-1834) of Dover, PA. I supect but have been unable to prove Eva's sister Catharine, also named in Wendel's will, married Frederick Stough's older brother Johannes Stough. Johannes and Catharine Stough had sons, John and Peter, both born in 1800 and both married women named Elizabeth Gross. Each had large families, and are ancestors of many Stough's living today, but were these men twins? Their tombstone and Strayer's church death records say not. If not, were they raised in the Johannes/Catharine Stough family as adopted children? There isn't any baptism records that I have found for John or Peter Stough.
I may be able to help in your Stough research. Which Stough branch are your ancestors linked?

I'm sorry, if there is a connection I don't know what it is. There were an awful lot of George and Robert Gross in that place and time, so it's been difficult to sort them out. Good luck with your searches!

Re: Henry GROSS and David KOENIG

David and Marie Weimar Koenig were my Great Grandparents on my father's side. I know that David had a paint store and was joined by brother-in-law, Henry Gross. I would like to know more about Henry's family as it might lead to clues to Marie's family. I know who David's siter was and she was never married to a Henry, so he has to be Marie's brother -in-law.

WANDANEWBOLT — 2012-11-28 04:11:55Z

Don't have much to offer. I do know a Robert Calvin Gross left Harlan County, KY and moved to Phila., PA as a young man. When he married he had an infant son with him, named Robert Calvin Gross Jr. Junior is 63 now and lives with us and has dementia; would love to know more about his family...just wondering if there is a connection.

Robert Calvin Gross Sr

WANDANEWBOLT — 2012-11-28 03:35:28Z

Robert Calvin Gross Sr moved to the Philadelphia area of Pennsylvania from Harlan County, Kentucky - son is Robert Calvin Gross Jr age 63 and he lives with us, never knew who his mother was, father never mentioned her. Father married woman named Helen who had three children - Catherine (Katherine), Dell (Dale) and Barbara. He does not know her maiden name. Helen's mother lived in New Jersey and they lived with her occasionally. Robert Sr. worked at a textile factory just outside Philadelphia and is now deceased. Robert Jr also worked at the textile factory for 2 or 3 yrs after leaving the Marine Corps, he does not know when or where or why his father died and doesn't know where he is buried. He says Helen died first and Robert Sr went to live with one of the three stepdaughters and died of a broken heart. One of the stepdaughters (Catherine) married a Puerto Rican gentleman (El Pidio Ramon, called Pete. Pete is now deceased.) and they lived at 31?? Palethorpe St in Philadelphia. (The Kensington/Allegheny area.) Stepsister Dell (?) lived in Browns Mill, New Jersey. Either Dell or Barbara was married to or living with a musician. Robert Jr. has significant dementia and has lost his family. He married three times, once to a lady named Mary Groan (Grone) in Philadelphia, once to a lady named Lucille Spatz in Reading, PA; and once to a lady named Jacquelyn Santella in Phoenixville, PA. He is divorced from all three and doesn't know where they are or anything much about them. Robert Jr. had one daughter Holly who now lives in Chattanooga Tennessee, is married and has two children.

Does anyone know anything about Robert Sr or Robert Jr that would allow us to at least contact his family in the event of an emergency? Or to establish some type of family history for him? Anything would be helpful,

John W. Gross 1833 Campbell County, Tn - What happened to him???

bmurray1998 — 2012-11-27 16:40:26Z

I am looking for the date of death of John W. Gross who was born in Campbell County, Tn. He married Sarah C. Madden on 19 Nov 1853 in Campbell County, they had three children all of whom, including Sarah, are buried in Gross Cemetery in Smith County, TN. (You may view their memorials on Findagrave.com) Sarah filed for pension in May of 1886 as a widow back in TN. I am led to believe thru the records I have reviewed that the military moved them to Ky. I am thinking that he may have died in Ky. ANY information anyone may have would be most welcomed. this is my husband's 3rd great grandfather.

In studying the family of Adam Mohr of Indiana, one of his Daughters Louisa Catherine Mohr married James Lauton Gross in Jackson Co IN and then they moved to Blackwell, Kay, Oklahoma and eventually died around Wichita, Sedgwick Kansas. Most of the descendants lived in Kansas, mostly around Wichita. It does not appear that this sprig of the Gross Family has been reported in Internet Trees nor Gross family Boards.

There are a few George Washington Grosses, a father and a son and then the sons son...yes they use the same names which makes researching confusing. My dad who is alive, John Wesley Gross was named after his grandfather, John Henry Gross, who is my grandmother (Phyllis Nadine Gross (Long's father.
