Well, I went to Montgomery Co., TN just knowing I was going to find My Miles Ellis and all of his children. I went to the Archives and the library and found nothing other than what I already had. What happened to this man and his 11 children? It is like they disappeared off the face of the earth. Can anyone help?? A nice man sent me the stuff he could find in the ECN. There was only one that connected with mine and I can't find anyone that knows the lady or where she is now. Miles married Polly Bobbitt in Warren Co., NC. They came to Montgomery Co., TN about 1814. The last thing we can find is a 1841 tax list. He paid 1 pol tax so he didn't own land. How did he support his family?? We can not find him in the 1850 census. We can find Ellises living with other people but no Miles. I can't concentrate on any of my other lines because this one is driving me nuts!! HELP:))))) debby

Debby, your Miles Ellis went to Wilson Co., Tn. He is listed in the 1840 census there. Maybe you can trace him from this. Glenda
