My great great grandfather, Jack was the son of Anderson John Caleb Cross and Susanna Missouri Grogan Cross. He was born in Milton County, Georgia (which is now Alpharetta). He was the husband of Sarah Elizabeth Holland Cross. Their children were Beber Cross, Chester Cross, my great grandmother Alice Blanch Cross Long, Walter William Cross, Sam Samuel Seldon Cross, John Anderson Cross, Jessy L Cross, Maynard Thomas Cross, Fannie Cross, and Russell J Cross.

The Cross (Crosse/Del Crosse) family immigrated to Maryland from England in 1663. They descend from Sir Robert Crosse (1552-1611), of a Charlynch and Spaxton family, who was knighted by his sovereign for his gallant exploits at sea. From the Hylle or Hull Cartulary there were members of the Crosse family in Spaxton from the days of the Edwards. They held lands in Spaxton and Quantock-Durborough from the Fitchet family. Their family is traced back to Sir Gilbert De Lancaster Kendal (Lancaster Castle, England) and continues into a royal line of family in the year 950 in Aquitaine, France.
