Biography
Ella Parker Floyd (1878-1934) was the wife of Elias Clayton Floyd.
Do not merge with Ella Floyd Bullard (1877-1914). They are not the same person.
Ella was 1 year old in 1880 census in the household of John C. Parker and Emily (Emma) Parker. She is mistakenly listed as a male infant (Elly Mc, instead of Ella Mae).
- Household Role Sex Age Birthplace
- John C. Parker Self Male 37 North Carolina, United States
- Emily Parker Wife Female 36 North Carolina, United States
- Alice Parker Daughter Female 14 North Carolina, United States
- Mary E. E. Parker Daughter Female 12 North Carolina, United States
- Dafer Parker Son Male 6 South Carolina, United States
- Caroline M. Parker Daughter Female 4 South Carolina, United States
- Emma A. Parker Daughter Female 2 South Carolina, United States
- Elly Mc D. Parker Son Male 1 South Carolina, United States
Sadly, there is no 1890 census due to the great fire that destroyed the 1890 census and by 1900, 20 year old Ella was married to Elias Clayton Floyd and living in Nichols near several of her cousins.
Supporting information:
Mattie Ashley, a cousin of her spouse Elias Clayton Floyd, noted in an interview with Roy Tipton that Ella was the daughter of John Parker, Confederate soldier in March, 2004.
Children of Ella and Elias Clayton noted in the 1920 census are:
- Bessie C Floyd Daughter Female 20 South Carolina
- Bishop M Floyd Son Male 19 South Carolina
- Boyd R Floyd Son Male 16 South Carolina
- Burnie C Floyd Son Male 12 South Carolina
- Jessie K Floyd Daughter Female 10 South Carolina

Ella Floyd who is married to Elias Clayton is NOT Ella Floyd - The 1880 census is wrong. All the Death certificates of the children say Ella Mae Parker. A document interview indicates the father was John Calhoun Parker and i knew the my Grandmama Bessie and my Aunt Lois were first cousins. The census says their child was a male - ellie mac. Please refer to the death certificates. i am trying to get the death certificate for Ella Parker.

Fixed, Robyn and Ron. Ella Floyd Bullard is the daughter of Sarah Ann Mincey and Hardy Floyd. Both Ella's lived contemporaneously and died tragically young, in my opinion. Hopefully the fixes in Wikitree, Geni, and My Heritage, will filter to other platforms. I know that in working with Robyn, we are seeking a birth/death certificate if one is available for Ella Parker Floyd, but I am sure of this information especially confirmed by the work of Roy Tipton, an expert genealogist.
