Thanks aghadowey. Do you have any dates (bmd) or other info for John Ellis, son of Daniel Ellis and Mary Hanson?
According to notes typed by my grandfather's sister in 1933, Daniel's father John (Jack) Ellis (my gt gt gt grandfather) was a farmer and the proprietor of Toome Eel Fisheries. Apparently, he and his wife Mary had 10 sons. Of these we only know of Daniel, Leslie (a farmer at Ballymaconnelly), Hugh (a doctor in Kilrea), James (a lawyer in USA), and Joshua (who fought in the American civil war). Do you have any info for this family?
