Welcome to my Ellis Family Genealogy. As you can see the generations below begin with my earliest ancestral grandmother for that particular line and works backwards to her furtherest ancestral grandfather. I chose to do it this way so that I could keep track of how many generations that surname comes down before changing due to marriage. If available, links will be noted for those ancestral families that have been completed. Thank you for coming to visit me. ~ Linda May ~
