This paper and the one preceding IT
are tentative-an effort to show the
interesting network which Virginia
families have woven.
Tho connections of the Ellis family

and later accomplishment. and showing
intermarriage with names whose

has. however. been carried through
four generations and well into the
nineteenth century. II there are
Elllses who are disappointed that the
line does not reach them, they may
gain further information by address
ing the Genealogical Column.
