This thread actually inquires about a Thomas...but I do see what you mean...You're wondering if he's the father of Thomas & John. (Making sure this is an actual search & not a one name study researched by others)
Wondered if anyone could shed any light on this family? Thomas Ellis married Martha in Loppington about 1762. Martha died in 1776 and is buried there but as far as I can see none of the 8 children were married there.
Best to use the search above & look for previous searches as there are 8 threads for a "Thomas Ellis" & several mentioning John as well. Very frustrating to repeat searches, so please take the time to link them and not start new searches on similar subjects..
To add a wrench into the works...(I see no Loppington marriage for Thomas & Martha)
Martha Boot or booth b.1731 m.1755 Acton, Cheshire, England
Cheshire Marriage Licence Bonds And Allegations
-Charles Ellis or Elliss Christening 10 March 1756 Acton (near Nantwich), Cheshire, Eng.
Parents Martha, Thomas Ellis
Note that Acton to Loppington is about 40 miles....Loppington to Wellington about 35
