There appears to be a will for the father Thomas Ellis in 1784 Greatness / Great Ness / Great Nefs
Spec: He may have also been from there, and...perhaps went back to get help with his young family?
The children are listed in wrong order of dates, so marriage might be more likely to be found within a decade or so before & around 1758.  J.J.

Can you explain this previous post from years ago? Are you having us search for something you already know, but didn't share with us? We all make some duplicates but you have a lot of previous threads for this very same family to which you could have added this request.

I know my GFx5 was a Thomas Ellis who married a Mary Parton in 1786 iirc, Wellington, on their marriage cert is is signed by John Ellis, father or brother I presume. Trouble is there are 2 likely candidates, one born 1766 to John and Sussanah the other born in 1764 to John and Jane. To make things worse they both have brothers called John! One married Mary the other it seems married a Priscilla Carman. I know the Cadmans were in the area too. Unless I can find either in a census\death cert I think I,m stuck!

I don't know they are the same family. I, m trying to find John born around 1758 according to the 1821 census. I don't know wether he was born in the area or wether he moved there. This is one possibility I, m trying to find out about.
