I am new at tracing but found web great resource and help. Descendant of following: Clinton Wm. Ellington b. 1914 Hainesville, Mo. sp. Nancy A. Wilson b. 1918 Dearborn, Mo. f. George Edward Ellington b. 1886 Ky. sp. Naomi Cheek f. Richardsen Bartles Ellington b. 1840? sp. Mattie B. Moore f. Thomas Jefferson Ellington b. 1810 KY sp. Carolyn Bartles b????? Here it becomes sketchy: i know from a written family history that my father gathered that there was a Pleasant Ellington and a David Ellington. I am not sure which came first but do know that David Ellington b. 1776 was in Va. and divorced a Marie Dupr y...he moved to Ky. where he was a college professor. I cannot figure out if there is a connection to John Ellington in VA. Georgia, I thought I had registered before on your heartland/plains site but don't find any information. I also had signed up for the newletter and have had no response to that. I do not know what disconnecting my 'signature' means. So that may be the problem. Please contact me at Lampertij@aol.com.....Thanks. Judith Ann Ellington Lamperti. Any help would be appreciated.

Looking for any records of Thomas Taylor Allington, b 1810 Bowling Green KY, d 25 Jan 1882 Florence Alabama, m Sarah A. E. Williams (d:1873, Florence Alabama), circa 1835 in Florence Alabama. Was Florence Alabama (state?) probate judge (1870) and Postmaster (12 Dec 1876 - 30 Jan 1879 or ? Mar 1882). Could find zero(!) references to him in local Florence newspaper. May have been ostracised due to participation in Federal military government dur ng Reconstruction? 1880 US Census lists a wife Margaret (Kyle?). Likely married in Florence, but can't find any marriage data. Any pointers greatly appreciated. Ed

Comments:
I'm looking for any information on John T. Ellington who married Mary Elizabeth HIGHTOWER, and died leaving daughter Mary Ann Frances Ellington. His widow later married James HICKS, who became guardian of the daughter. There is a Laurens Co. GA legal re ord dated July 22, 1844 which mentions "James Hicks in his role as guardian of Mary Ann F. Ellington, one of the distributees of the estate of the deceased Simeon Ellington." How was John T. Ellington related to Simeon? Was this the same Simeon Ellingto whose widow Elizabeth is mentioned in an 1838 Laurens Co. legal record? The same Simeon Ellington whose estate had a dispute over the ownership of a slave with the estate of John T. Ellington in 1836? Any help would be greatk appreciated.

Comments:
William and Martha Ellington moved to Texas before 1850. The 1870 Bosque Co, TX census lists William as 66 from KY, wife Martha 44 from VA. In the 1880 Bosque Co, TX census William is listed as 81 from GA and Martha is 50 from VA. The children on the 1 80 census are the same as the younger children on the 1880 census...so I'm confused. I don't know if William is from GA or from KY or if he was born in 1799 or in 1804. I do know that Iva Ellington married Lemuel P Jenkins in Bosque Co, TX in 1881 and t at she is listed with William & Martha in the 1880 census. I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks
