Preferred Citation: Item description, MRL 1: Emory Ross Papers, series #, box #, and folder #, The Burke Library Archives (Columbia University Libraries) at Union Theological Seminary, New York. Biography The Rev. Emory Warren Ross was born in 1887 to Elizabeth Williams Ross and Allison Ross who were teachers at the Southern Christian Institute in Edwards, Mississippi. He graduated from Eureka College in 1908 having the reputation of a top basketball player and went on to serve as the secretary-treasurer for the Southern Christian Institute for two years. From 1910-1912 Mr. Ross taught at Eureka College. He undertook graduate studies at the University of Chicago, the University of Wisconsin and the College of Missions in Indianapolis. He was married to Myrta Maud [Pearson] Ross (1892-1985) and they had two children, Frances Elizabeth Ross Cummings and Roger Pearson Ross. In 1908 he became the treasurer of the Disciples of Christ Congo Mission, and the following year was made secretary-treasurer of the Union Mission House in Leopoldville, which was conducted as a joint enterprise by a number of missions to serve travelers passing up and down the Congo. He was ordained in 1912, and then from 1912 to 1916 Ross was in Liberia as a missionary of the Disciples of Christ. In 1925 when the Congo Continuation Committee was reconstituted as the Conseil Protestant du Congo, he served as its joint secretary and in 1928 became its first full-time secretary. While in Africa, Emory and Myrta Ross met and befriended Albert Schweitzer and hosted Schweitzer on his first visit to the USA. Emory Ross returned to the U.S. in 1933 to serve as the secretary of both the African Welfare Committee of the Federal Council of Churches and the American Committee on Work in the Congo, representing missionary bodies established in that region. From 1936 to 1953 Ross served as the Executive Secretary of the African Committee of the National Council of Churches of Christ U.S.A. He was a life member and life fellow of both the Royal African Society and the Geographical Society of London respectively. Mr. Ross served as a Trustee of the Phelps Stokes Fund and the N.Y. State Colonialization Society.
