Surnames: Ellis, Ware Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/WBC.2ACI/413.475.480.579.1757.1753.1.1 Message Board Post: Iris, if you see this, please e-mail me at [email protected] I also thought that John Ellis, b. 1661, married Susannah Ware, but I have recently found evidence that before she married John Ellis, this Susannah Ware (nee Adams) was the widow of Jacob Ware and mother of his daughter, Elizabeth Ware, who was one of the 3 wives of John and Susannah Ellis's son, John Ellis, born 1685. That would mean that John Ellis III, born 1685, married his half sister. Obviously, this cannot be. I would VERY MUCH like to exchange info. with you to see if we can straighten this out. Thanks!
