Do you have a middle name for William? I have a book that includes a lot of Ellis, and several are named William. The only Gates marriage in it is James D. Ellis & Matilda Ann Gates, but there are connections to Tallapoosa Co. in that James died there. These Ellis people came from Troup Co. GA before they came to Tallapoosa.
