Notes:

Ellis Barron Sr. was born around 1605 in England and died on October 30, 1676, in Watertown, Middlesex County, Massachusetts. His first marriage was to Grace, with whom he had several children. He later married Hannah or Anne (Hammond) Hawkins, a widow, on December 14, 1653, in Watertown. Ellis Barron Sr. immigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony, likely shortly before he became a freeman in Watertown on June 2, 1641. He served as a constable in 1658 and as a selectman in 1668 and 1673.

In Watertown, Ellis owned a homestall of ten acres and was involved in various community roles. His will, dated October 26, 1676, and proved on December 19, 1676, mentions his wife, seven children (Ellis, John, Moses, Mary, Susanna, Hannah, and Sarah), a granddaughter Elizabeth Barron, and a male Negro servant. The will also references an agreement made with his wife at the time of their marriage regarding her return to her properties if he died first.

Ellis Barron Sr.'s children were mostly born before 1640, the date of his immigration. His children include Mary Barron, who married Daniel Warren; Ellis Barron Jr., who married Hannah or Anna Hawkins and later Lyda (Prescott) Fairbanks; Susanna Barron, who married Stephen Randall; Hannah Barron, who married Simon Coolidge; John Barron, who married Elizabeth Hunt; Sarah Barron, who married Phesant Eastwick; and Moses Barron, who married Mary Learned.

The inventory of Ellis Barron Sr.'s estate included various items such as barber instruments, books of divinity and physic, and a Negro valued at twenty pounds. His wife Hannah's will, dated August 18, 1683, also mentions Ellis and their Negro servant Shippio.

Ellis Barron's origins have been disputed, with some sources claiming he was from Ireland and descended from a noble family. However, these claims are considered unproven and unlikely, as they are based on information from a known forger of pedigrees, Albert Welles. Therefore, Ellis Barron's exact origins remain uncertain.
