Emma F Ellenwood photo found, 1890s

BryanMehn — 2010-11-07 03:14:14Z

I found a photo in Maryland of a Emma Florence Ellenwood. It is from Reading, Mass and probably from the early 1890s. it has written on the back 'to Margaretta Weston'. I believe that Emma also wrote on the back of a few other photos as Margaretta Weston is written in the same hand on 6-7 other photos of the Green, Parker and Weston families. If this Emma is a relative please contact me so I can get the photo back to you.

Hello - your John was John Warren Ellenwood of Reading, MA. Father John Smith Ellenwood of Yarmouth, NS and Reading, mother Almira/Elmira W. Pemberton. The Ellenwoods then go back to Samuel and Hannah (Saunders) of Yarmouth, Giles and Jemima (Sullivan) of Yarmouth, Samuel and Sarah (Giles) of Beverly, MA and Yarmouth, Robert and Abigail (Ober) of Beverly, Benjamin and Mary (from whom I'm descended) and finally Ralph and Eleanor Lynn. I had the Yarmouth Ellenwoods in my database but didn't have information on the line that went back to MA, so looked at the MA State Health Dept. birth, marr and death registrations just now (at the New England Historic Genealogical Society website) to flesh out the John Smith Ellenwood line, and I can pass that on to you if you'd like.

Hello, are you still looking for info on John Ellenwood? My great grandfather was a John Ellenwood from MA. We are from the California side of family. All I know is that a John Ellenwood married Elizabeth Reed and they had a son (my granddad)Forest Pemberton Ellenwood in 1901. He was born in Stoneham MA. I don't know when they divorced but my grandfather was young, he was later adopted by Elizabeth second husband Carl Cook. They lived in Santa Cruz CA for most of his life. John Ellenwood moved back to Massachusetts and married Ida (don't remember her maiden name). I'm still looking for info to, if you have any more please contact me thru ancestry.com or my email-gigi2354@yahoo.com

Thomas ELLENWOOD -- Lucy SMITH, 1784 MA

xxb1caez01 — 2008-04-11 05:05:38Z

Looking to find info on this Ellenwood grouping:

Lucy Smith, widow, married Thomas Ellenwood, in Brimfield, MA., Jun 03, 1784

Thomas Ellenwood md Lucy Smith of Brimfield, MA: Nov 16, 1750

xxb1caez01 — 2008-02-07 07:00:03Z

Being an obsessive, I am bogged down. I can't get this darn Smith
business clarified, I'm, stuck on this stage.

If you have access to ancestry.com or some other pay service, for which
I am unable to belong to, I am looking for a Lucy Smith [wd] of
Brimfield, MA. Now this is not as easy as it seems.

1. Lucy [bc May 27, 1741] is really Lucy Lynde, d/o Samuel Lynde and
Lucy Lamb of Leicester, MA [md. Oct 09, 1740]

2. she marries Nathaniel Smith of Leicester, MA...[bc Sep 16, 1738; md
Aug 14, 1762]

3. they had five children, somewhere!!!!

4. one of which is "my" Polly Smith, the other four are unfound as of yet

5. she married Solomon Thompson in Brimfield, MA [bc Nov 23, 1760; md
Jul 13, 1786]

6. BUT!... Nathaniel and Lucy disappear from Leicester, MA, and turn up
in the 1771/2 Census for Guilford, VT/NY

7. this is a tumultuous time when VT, MA, NH and NY are fighting over
who is going to get that part of the wilderness as part of their
state...so we have a conflict between two groups, the Yorkers and the
Sufferers

8. the Smiths are in the middle of it

9. each side trying to outdo the other in records destruction...for
eight years!!!

10. Polly was born c 1764, so she would have been about seven-eight
years old at the time of the census

11. Polly marries Solomon back in Brimfield, in July 13, 1786, 14 years
after the census and at the ae 22 years

12. where were Polly and her family during those "lost years"

13. now, how is it that Polly is back in Brimfield...what has happened
in the space of those 12 years???

14. we also find a Lucy Smith, [wd] marrying a Thomas Ellinwood, back in
Brimfield, Jun 03, 1784...just two years before her daughter...SAME
TOWN, SAME CHURCH...

15. I can find nothing to identify this Lucy Smith [wd] as the original
Lucy Lynde that md Nathaniel Smith, so I must assume until then, that
she is the one I am looking for

16. Lucy Smith [ae 43] md Thomas Ellinwood [bc Aug 01, 1728/mdc Jun 03,
1784; ae 56], and is his third wife

17. guess who his second wife was...and who just so happens to have
connections back to the Thompsons, MARY THOMPSON, Solomon's aunt!!!
[sounds like the Ozarks]

18. so Lucy is now, Solomon's aunt and his wife's mother! ...if my
assumptions have merit... one big happy family

19. but what happened to Nathaniel, Polly's father, and Lucy's husband?
...his death cannot be found anywhere...

20. and since Polly and her mother are living in or near Brimfield, the
other children must have been there as well...some probably already
married, more than likely they are all married, but to whom?

21. assuming the children were ...using the LDS figures...

.born........ 1762/3, 1764/5 [Polly], 1766/7, 1768/9, 1770/1

females md....1782/3, 1784/5>1786], 1786/7, 1788/9, 1790/1

males md......1786/7, 1788/9......., 1790/1, 1792/3, 1794/5

22. are there children? fitting this year sequence? md, whose parents
are Nathaniel Smith and Lucy {Lynde} Smith?

Bottom line, I'd like to find the children, etc..

Thomas Ellenwood md Abigail Wallis, Mary Thompson, Lucy Smith of Brimfield, MA

xxb1caez01 — 2008-02-07 06:56:47Z

Can you trace your Ellenwoods back to Brimfield, MA. If so, and you can help me please contact me...

Thomas Ellenwood
m1 Abigail King...Nov 16, 1750
m2 Mary Thompson...Jan 13, 1763
m3 Lucy Smith...Nov 16, 1750 < this is the one I am interested it.

The Smiths and the Thompsons were related. I have the complete history of both the Smiths and Thompsons, save for the union of Thomas and Lucy, and Lucy's five children by her previous marriage, to Nathaniel Smith of Leicester, MA. Lucy's daughter Polly md Solomon Thompson, nephew of Mary Thompson.

Hello Ted,

I just happened to notice your message on Rootsweb. Are you looking for Ellenwoods or Bruns/Von Bruns? I might be able to help you with the Ellenwoods but I can't help you at all with the Bruns/Von Bruns. My maiden name was Ellenwood. I'd be more than happy to help you if you need Ellenwood help. Your Jessie was sister to my Charles Thomas Ellenwood. Marti
