I was really quite happy with my name change theory until I looked at the
Ross family as they were in 1881 from your census details. Some things are a
little off... Robertina Walker Black Ross is listed as being 9 years old
which means she would have been born in 1871/2, not 1870. And Catherine's
age is off by a couple of years, too. Still, there is no Euphemia Jr. listed
in the 1881 Ross household so my theory may yet hold water.

Mary replies -
I have 2 birthdates, think Trish may be right about the re-name of Effy -
To JOHN ROSS & EUPHEMIA BUCHAN MACKAY

2 Feb 1870, EUPHEMIA BUCHAN ROSS
17 Jan 1872 CATHERINE ROSS

Not much room for ROBERTINA WALKER BLACK ROSS in 1871 !
Especially considering, Euphemia was their 8th child and there was a gap of at
least 18 mths between other births.
