HelloSue,
You are right, I was taking more than a long shot. I had just that information in my files from way back and have no idea where it came from. I have tried every thing I know to find where my great grandfather came from. Some one on the list when I joined in March sent me this from the 1881 census in Wokingham.
3, Portland Place, Wokingham,
John Ellis, head, 38, agricultural labourer, born crookham Hamshire
Margaret Ellis, wife, born Bradford Yorks.
James Watts, border, 85, annuitant, no place of birth given.
On my grandfather Charles marriage cert his father John ELLIS lived, 24, Bourne Avenue, Bolton Road, Windsor, [a butcher] That is all the information I have......I thought if I could find the children of any John ELLIS in Windsor, Wokingham, areas I might find a Charles in one of the children. It looks as though I will have to wait until the next census. This is the only side of my family I can't get on with.
I am going back up on planet 5 to join them all up there.
Regards Judith
