Marilyn, Have been looking at this William BELLIS for years now and as yet am unable to make any link. He lived just outside North Middletown, Bourbon Co KY...only about 7 miles (as the crow flies) from where my Philip lived in neighboring Nicholas Co (near East Union). I have suspected that he may be the "William BELLIS" who was the bondsman for Rachel BELLIS DICKEN when she married her second husband Adam McCORMICK, in Garrard Co KY 1805. Rachel's father Philip, had died only a few weeks prior to her second marriage.
