father of Ellyson Ladd?
>.Donald> No proof whatsoever on who might be Ellison's parents
>LUDDSHAR> I see it out there enough, are they just wishing?
>.Donald> it could be any one of 3 of William & Ursulah's sons
>.Donald> Jacob, James, or Thomas
>LUDDSHAR> Yes, and I really think it is Jacob.
>LUDDSHAR> although my dad says that one of our direct ancestors was
Thomas.
>.Donald> Do you think that the Bourbon Co., KY marriages: Ellison;
James; Robert G: and Millie are all one family?
>LUDDSHAR> Well, Ellison and Amelia had a daughter named Millie and I
understand that Patsy also was married in Bourbon co., KY.

Hardwick.

>LUDDSHAR> Some of the information has been wrong. I do have the right
info.
>.Donald> The Ladd book list James as John that married E. Hardwick
>.Donald> whoops....
>LUDDSHAR> I will check it for you later.
>.Donald> So it looks as if this James is certainly of the William &
Usurlah branch
>.Donald> The John may come from the fact that Betsy's father was John
HARDWICK

>.Donald> but Elizabeth is listed several ways:

the ELLYSON spelling
>LUDDSHAR> There's lots of them, too.

>.Donald> Between the ELLYSON, CREW, BINFORD, surnames, you'd think
there weren't any other families for the LADDs to marry into! LOL

Methley.
>LUDDSHAR> You have a point.
>.Donald> Is METHLEY English or some other nationality?
