'All these are my Ross relations. Does anyone know if they're related, or where Rose and John originated'

The 1911 census information given by 'Slowhands' is one Dix family, living in 3 rooms, Cawdor Cottages, (top of Brampton Street, Ross) - and the information given previously (all born in Ross)

John and Rose had been married 5 years, 3 children born alive, 3 living - John was a Bricklayers Labourer Builder.

Looking at Freebdm - for births of DIX (mother's maiden name BARBER) after 1911 - Ross District - not sure if they are John & Ross DIX's children.
