Biography

John Ellington is a part of US Black heritage.

Son of Jim Ellington and Emma (maiden name unknown)

Husband of Elizabeth (maiden name unknown - likely Fishburne)

No record of death found so far - it is possible that his wife died in 1908 based on the record below.

No record of either of them on the 1910 Census - his children are apparently living with their Uncle (Henry Fishburne - likely Elizabeth's younger brother) and his family in the same city.
