I am the great grandson of William Ross and I am having trouble tracing him apart from the fact he was from Scotland

Welcome to Rootschat  :)

Here are the family in 1911

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XW65-HZP

William’s birthplace is shown as Wigtown.

As advised on a couple of previous threads to other posters, the marriage record would give his father’s name.

I have a copy of the marriage certificate the fathers name is Peter Ross occupation Farmer, but I've had no luck in tracing him.

This is a note to Kelly. I'm Huw Morgan, great grandson of William Ross and Elizabeth. My grandmother was Mary Elizabeth Ross, who married Sydney Milton also of Senghenydd (13 Cennydd Terrace). Sydney survived the mine disaster as well as WWI.

Kelly, I'd be very interested in finding out more about the Ross family and see how we're related. I live in Toronto, Canada.
