the distinction of being the last sur

Declaration of Independence. She is
the granddaughter of William Ellery.
Miss Ellery was born April 8. 1898,
and has lived her entire life in New

Mary, long since deceased, ever mar
ried. For a great many years they
made their home in the Ellery home

their grandfather, but this house is
no longer standing.
The Newport chapter of the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution is
named after this signer Of the Decla-

the invitation of Miss Ellery that the
chapter was formed in this house in
1896. She has always been deeply in
terested in the chapter and kept up
her active membership in it. attend

permitted.
The trunk that William Ellery took
with him from Newport to Philadel-
phia when he went there to sign the
Declaration is in possession of the
d. A. r. chapter, gift from the
Misses Ellery
Opposite the old homestead the
family owned a three-cornered piece
of land at the apex of which stood
the Liberty Tree. A few years ago
Miss Ellery presented this land to the
city for park purposes. 1t has been
improved, beautified and the city has
honored the donor by christening it
