Firstborn of two (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elder

(Other definitions for elder that I've seen before include "Earlier born" , "Woody shrub - used for wine, tea or cordial" , "Senior member - plant" , "Church leader; tree" , "Berry-bearing shrub" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
