Research Note - the marriage connection set out below in italics is incorrect, based on the vital records. A different Joseph Ellis, son of Joseph, born in 1691, married Tammerson Adams, who is different from Catherine, in Boston in 1719. And three of the children of this marriage were born before 1719. It appears more likely that Catherine married [[Ellis-3245 | Joseph Ellis], born 1681, son of John, to whom this profile is now linked. However, no record of that marriage has been found in Wrentham nor Medfield vital records. Perhaps they married in another town, in 1711 or earlier. More research needed. Halsey Bullen
She married Joseph Ellis in Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts on June 16, 1719. [2]
Joseph and Catherine (Adams?) Ellis/Elis had, in Wrentham:[3] or, where noted, in Medway:[4]
Joseph, b. July 14, 1712
Gideon, b. June 29, 1714
Abner, b. July 18, 1716
Sarah, b. Dec. 16,1721
John, b. Feb. 28, 1726-7, bp. in Medway May 7, 1727: 'John, ch. "Jo." of Wrentham'
Asa, b. Nov. 3, 1729 in Medway
Joseph and Catherine removed from Wrentham and returned to Medway possibly in 1727, as suggested by the birth and baptism of their son John.
Catherine died a widow in Medway on Jan 20, 1760. Her husband Joseph had died there on September 29, 1754 [5]
