Tombstone Tuesday - George A. Ross

Tombstone of George A. Ross

This is the tombstone of George A. Ross located at Lake Creek Cemetery, Calhoun County, Iowa. George was my great grand uncle and the brother of Clara (Ross) Fowlie. He is buried adjacent to his parents and some of his siblings. I don't have many details about George, but they match the details on the reverse side of the tombstone. I have some information that he moved to Wyoming prior to 1920 and his youngest son was born there, but died prior to 1930.

It is transcribed as follows:
Son
George A. Ross
May 5, 1890
Oct. 2, 1980
