Description

Minnie Alice Cogburn Ross (b. 1865 - d. 1933) was the daughter of Robert and Ruth Cogburn. She was born in Flushing, Michigan. She married Stephen Ross (b. 1850 - d. 1926) on February 17, 1886 in Flint, Michigan. They came west shortly after their marriage and settled in Chino Valley, Arizona. They had one son, Garland (b. 1886 - d. 1946), who became a dentist in Santa Ana, California after the family's move there.

Mr. Ross became the foreman of the Garland Ranch and then part owner. For many years the property was known as the Garland and Ross property. He later entered the contracting business and constructed part of the old Arizona Central railroad, which became the Santa Fe main line through Prescott. The family left Prescott in 1897 and settled in Santa Ana, California.

Following a short illness, Minnie died in Santa Ana, California. Her obituary was published on October 16, 1933. She is buried at Fairhaven Memorial Park, Santa Ana, California. Stephen died on March 5, 1926.
