Hi, I am related to John Ferdinand Roos. He was married to Minnie Valentine and they had one child,Reginald Roos. John Ferdinand Roos was called "English Ferd" by most of the family and his father was John Peter Roos and the brother of my great great grandfather Ferdinand Roos. My GGGrandfather named one of his sons John Peter Roos Jr. and John Ferdinand Roos was named after his father and my GGGrandfather. I have most of my Roos line from about 1823 in Germany on. If you are interested in comparing notes let me know. Most of my line migrated to around Lewiston, Idaho and later spread out. I live in Oregon. You must be in Eleanor MacKrell's line. She was married to Peter Jacob Roos brother to John Peter Roos and my GGGrandfather Ferdinand Roos. Sincerley, Charlotte
