My mother’s Ellis ancestors (Cape Cod)

 

Below is a downloadable Word file which comprises a report on my Ellis ancestors from Cape Cod. They include the first immigrant, Lt. John Ellis of Sandwich, Massachusetts (b. ca. 1620); his wife Elizabeth (Freeman) Ellis (b. 1625): Lt. Mordecai Ellis of Sandwich (1650/51-1709/10); and recent Ellis descendants to whom I am related to on my mother’s side through her ancestors Anson Burgess Ellis (1813-1853) of Plymouth, Massachusetts; Lydia Perkins (Ellis) Handy (1851-1930) of Sandwich, Massachusetts; and Ralph Ellis Handy (my maternal grandfather).
