Nor was the surname EILLIS (exception: Book 1 noted that there were numerous surnames (ELIIS was one of many) that purchased a lot in Bayview Cemetery but no record of a burial there. You might try the surrounding counties: The cemeteries are all indexed into books, see http://www.rootsweb.com/~wijuneau/jcgs.html Here is what I did find: Wisconsin Census, 1820-90 ELLIS, ELISHA T.

I think my relative, Elisha Ellis died there between 1870 and 1880. Do you have him listed? He lived in New Lisbon in the 1870 Census. Thanks so much for your time. Sandra Ball <explor19@att.net>
