I have not found a son named Keith ROSS living with parents Keith and
Elizabeth ROSS on the census films I have read (which is odd, since there
is usually a son named after the father). Perhaps he was absent on a
particular census, and fell between the others. Or, perhaps he is a nephew
of my Keith, who had brothers John and James that I've found so far. Or, of
course, no close relation.

From the censuses, it appears that Keith ROSS and Elizabeth HAY (m Aug 8,
1807, Old Machar, Aberdeen) had:
John ROSS - bapt Feb 2, 1814, Old Machar, Aberdeen (baptisms located from IGI)
Alexander ROSS - bapt June 26, 1820, Auchindoir and Kearn, Aberdeen
William ROSS - bapt Aug 19, 1824, Auchindoir and Kearn, Aberdeen
James ROSS - bapt Sept 5, 1826, Kildrummy, Aberdeen
Robert ROSS - bapt Dec 25, 1831, Kildrummy, Aberdeen

I'd love to find some ROSS connections, but it doesn't seem we can connect
at this time.
