Roz,

I don't have the actual date of death for Nelly (Williamson) Bellis but in
the Hunterdon County Democrat extracts found on Dennis Sutton's website <
http://njsuttonfamily.org/Newspaper/paperhistory.htm>; is the following.
April 1, 1840 Vol. 2 No. 33
"Died on Monday last, in Rariton Township, Mrs. Nelly Bellis,
widow of John Bellis, Sen. aged 86 years"
Did she move back to NJ after John's death, maybe to live with one of the
children? She's probably buried somewhere in Hunterdon County, I don't see them
transporting
a body back to Ohio in those times.
