Is he insinuating a relationship between the [[Rose of Kilravock]] family and {{Fearchar}} Earl of Ross?<br /> <br /> Luckily, he goes on to say that part of his reasoning for this conclusion is the work of researcher Hamish Ross who wrote, in part, &#039;the arms granted [to Hugh of Kilravock] are very similar to grants to other Rosses (all variations of three water budgets (carriers) on a field of gold)&#039; .<br /> <br /> In mentioning the coats of arms that all display 3 water bougets, he&#039;s clearly associating the Rose family of Kilravock with the other Norman de Ros families when he uses the term &#039;Clan Ross&#039;. The coat of arms of the Earls of Ross has 3 lions, not water bougets.<br /> <br /> It is important that we clarify this because [[Clan Ross]] most often refers to the descendants of Fearchar. A connection hasn&#039;t been confirmed yet, genetically or otherwise, between the Rose family of Kilravock &amp; the family of the original Earls of Ross, at least not one that would end with them sharing the same Y-chromosome.<br /> |footnotes=No<br /> |title=Descendants of Francis Ross<br /> }}</div>
