There's more info on Ellis-7539 on my Ancestry websites at jtellis222, plus others'.

I'm a descendant of Charles' brother, William b. 1805, and communicate with a cousin who still lives in Morris Co. NJ, whence Charles and several members of his sons and daughters emigrated in 1979-1881. Decendants still live in Morris County and others went west and south. Along with many residents of St Just in Penwith, Charles' other sons and daughters went to Bendigo, Vic, Australia, where they celebrate an annual Lafrowda festival. I visited the Ellis Winery in Bendigo--good stuff. Jerry, Ellis-15426
