With your library card (Onondaga Co. Public), you can access Heritage Quest on- line from your house. If you don't already know about this, it will open up a whole world of resources for you! I've used it quite f few times in the past year when I was recovering from illness and no way could I make it downtown to do the research I wanted to do.

Hope the following from the book "The History of Onondaga County" written in 1878 will help you track down any church records that might be available. "sev Congregational, Presbyterian nd Baptist Societies were organized n th twn o Manlius during 1789 to 1803." Christ Church (Episcopalian) was orgnaized in 1804 and the building was erected in 1813. Trinity Presbyterian Church of Manlius was formed in 1815 and the building was erected in 1819. First Methodist Episcopal Church of Manilus was built in 1822. Baptist Churches were among the earliest in the town of Manlius, but no edifice was erected in the village till 1828. In 1813 an organization was formed under the name of the "Pompey and Manlius Baptist Church" Those were in the village of Manilus. There were also churches in the village of Fayettevile , Kirkville and the Eagle Village that are in the Town of Manilus, though these seem to have been later.

I thought the book had an index. Jonas P(erry) ELLIS was born August 31, 1808, in Milford, Otsego Co., NY, to Christopher ELLIS and Wealthy (Perry) ELLIS. He married Huldah BOWEN on October 23, 1831 in Laurens, Otsego Co., NY. Jonas and Wealthy moved to Onondaga Co. at some time before 1840. Jonas and Huldah had two children, Harriet born April 29, 1836, and James, born July 20, 1838. James died at 16 years of age. In the 1840 Federal U.S. Census, Jonas and his family were living in Manlius. I have a paragraph from Early Settlers and Development in the Town of Manlius in which his participation in the fire company is mentioned. In 1847 Jonas Ellis owned 39 acres in Lot 9, which borders the Town of Manlius. The farm was valued at $850, and Jonas owned $200 in personal items. In the 1850 Federal U.S. Census, Jonas and his family were living in Pompey, but Jonas was not in Pompey in the 1852 Assessors Book.. I have Jonas's will. He died April 5, 1856, and was buried in the Manlius Village Cemetery. Huldah was listed in the 1880 U.S. Federal Census in the household of Henry JONES in Syracuse, NY. She died February 10, 1882, and was buried in the same cemetery as Jonas. Harriet, Jonas's and Wealthy's daughter, married Hamilton STONE. I do not have their marriage date. Hamilton was born January 15, 1830, in New York State, probably in Onondaga Co., NY. Hamilton, Harriet and their daughter, Hattie Ella, moved to Ovid, Clinton Co., MI, sometime between the 1860 and 1870 U.S. Federal Censuses. Hamilton was a carpenter and became a lumberman in Michigan. According to the Federal censuses, both of Hamilton's parents were born in New York State. I have not been able to find them. Thank you very much.
