Subject: [PABERKS] ELLIS Family Census Information
Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2000 08:24:23 EST


Hi Listers,

Im hoping some kind person has access to either the Montgomery County US
Census, or indices for, 1869, 1870, and/or 1880, and may be willing to do a
look up for me.

I found the following at the Montgomery County Historical Society during my
last trip to PA last OCT, in their book on the 1850 US Census, under Upper
Merion Township, Montgomery County:

ELLIS, James, 35 Quarryman, b. England
Mary Ann, 32, b. England
James, 7, b. England
William, 5, b. England
Anna, 3, b. England
George, 8/12, b. PA

and elsewhere:

ELLIS, Elizabeth, 12, b. England She is a sibling to James, William
Anna, and George

I, a descendent of Anna, Annie, and a cousin, a descendent of Elizabeth,
would like someones help in tracing this family during the next 30 years.

The 1860 census should look something like this:

ELLIS, James, 45, b. England
Mary Ann, 42, b. England
James, William, and possibly Anna, are possibilities
George, 10 b. PA
Jane, ?, b. PA
Mary, ?, b. PA
Elizabeth may have been married to William TOMS by then.

In 1870, we are only seeking the parents at this time, since were sure
Elizabeth and Annie were married by then. Some of the younger children may
still have been around, however.

We would also want to see if James and Mary Ann were still living in 1880,
since we have no records on them.

Thanks very much,
