Darlene, Do you still reside in Shelby County? I am also on the Webb list and my Grandmother was a Webb. I would like to compare notes with you on your James Webb, as my ancestor James also came to KY from VA by way of NC. Seems to be a lot of parallels in the description. Please answer to my home address. I also reside in Shelby County and maybe acquainted with your Ellis family.
