Hello Ellis researchers. Again, I am sending out my query in hopes there are some new people working on our line. I have been researching Obediah Ellis. I find him in Baltimore in the 1770's, in Anne Arundel, MD., in 1780's and then he is in Frederick, MD., in 1790-91 selling wagon, horses, etc. to his son Eleazer Ellis before moving to Woodford Co., KY. Eleazer married Rebecca Onion (some say she was a Jones) in Frederick and Obediah's daughter Rachel married Henry Sheets. I am trying to find out who Obediah's first wife was, where he came from, if he was the immigrant, who his parents were. Really just any information. I have hit a big brick wall. Thanks for any help on this line and sure hope to hear from some cousins. Sandi Please reply either to the list or directly to me at ricksandm@msn.com
