The Ellzey is
not a direct line family of mine. However, the Ellzey family married into my
Alford, Fortenberry & Smith lines. They were our neighbors, friends &
in laws.
Finding the
Bible record on line at Genealogy Gophers was a nice surprise. It yielded the
oldest information I have on this family.
