Frederick Cross1

(1842 - 1910)
Father*John Cross b. c 1799
Mother*Agnes Dorroch b. c 1806, d. c 1850
Frederick Cross was born in Airdrie, New Monkland, Lanarkshire, on 4 December 1842.1,2 and was baptised on 15 January 1843 in Airdrie.1
The siblings Frances, Margaret, John, Amelia, George, Elizabeth, Frederick, Henry, Edward, Albert and Charles were listed in the 1851 census at Mavisbank Cottage in Airdrie, New Monkland, Lanarkshire, with their father John Cross.2
He was listed as the brother of John Cross in the 1861 Census at Arden Cottage in Airdrie, New Monkland, Lanarkshire, and was a banker's clerk.3

He married Elizabeth Smith at the County Buildings in Edinburgh, Midlothian, on 7 January 1862. He described himself as a 'Mercantile Clerk', while she was a spinster, but both her parents (Robert SMITH, teacher, and Eleanor GORDON) were deceased. Given that both of them were under age (he 19, she 20), the marriage was performed under a warrant, and she was permitted to marry by James LIDDELL, grocer, and Harry LIDDELL, schoolmaster, presumably her guardians.4

Frederick died on 18 September 1910 in Christchurch, Canterbury, at age 67.5
