Ross created the fictional character Ally Sloper for the British magazine Judy in 1867,[1] the popular character was spun off into his own comic, Ally Sloper's Half Holiday, in 1884.[2] Ross originally was the illustrator of the character until his French-born wife, under the pseudonym Marie Duval, later took over the illustration.[1] He had a son, Charles.[3]
For a number of years, Ross was the editor of Judy.[3]
He contributed a series of engravings, entitled "A Happy Day in a Varlet's Life. In a Series of Hard Lines", to the Ninth Season (1868) of Beeton's Christmas Annual.[4]
Ross was the author of six novels in genres ranging from Gothic penny dreadfuls to light romances.[3]
