Please Help? I am currently unable to find much information on my father's side of the family. My grandfather was William Edward Ellington (born November 16, 1921 and died December 25, 1993) possibly from Alexandria, Virginia area. He had a brother named Clyde L. El ington, Jr. (all I have on him is a name). Their father was Clyde L. Ellington, Sr. Does anyone recognize these names?

Comments:
I am gggrandson of Nancy Ellington, d. of Jonathan Ellington, s. of Johanthan Jacob Ellington (see Ellington line this site). Nancy's (b. 1798, actually 1803 in KY)middle name was Brock, but nearest Brock is husband of her sister Elizabeth,who married ye rs after Nancy's birth. Thus,there is an earlier Brock connection in family--any clues out there?. Nancy married Thomas Warburton Powell in 1816 (not 1818) in OH. I have complete line of their descendants for whomever is interested. The family migrate to Indiana about 1832 from Ohio. From 1842 to 1846 they were in Bardstown, KY., then back to IN. The Powells are a very large family and are spread all over central and northern IN.

Looking for the parents of the Sarah "Sallie" Baucom b. abt. 1813 who married Fleet Williams in abt. 1836. She is reported by some to have been the daughter of Lewis and Lucy Ellington Baucom.

Fleet died in 1842, leaving Sallie with four small children which she raised without remarrying. She died in 1875. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Comments:
I am searching for information on my maternal grandfather's line. He is Roy Webster Ellington, born to Richard Lee Ellington and Mamie Dorris. He had a brother Jewel, who died in 1993 and had apparently amassed a fairly large genealogy of the Ellingtons. We cannot find what happened to this information. Both brothers were born in Roswell, GA I believe, and Jewel's last residence was Stone Mounta n, GA. I remember hearing about big family reunions that my grandfather would return to GA for, but we seem to have lost contact with that part of the family. Many in the family almost certainly still live in the Atlanta area. If you think you may have any information that might help in my research it would be greatly appreciated.
