Arthur Ross (bishop)

Arthur Edwin Ross MC* (18 December 1869 – 24 May 1923) was a cleric in the Church of Ireland.

[4] Soon after he was appointed in the spring of 1916, an assistant chaplain-general wrote of him, ‘obviously good and keen on his work.

[5] His age did not hamper Ross’s ability to rescue ‘wounded men under heavy shell fire’for which he was awarded his first Military Cross.

He was the means of saving many lives, and inspired the stretcher-bearers to work to the utmost limit of endurance".

[2] In 1909 he married Mary Elizabeth Linzee Hezlet, a prominent golfer.
