Notes:

.Born on the family farm in South Lebanon, Maine, probably on a piece of land which had been owned by Isaac Ellis, his grandfather. He probably spent his early years on the farm and then went to work in the shoe industry in the area. At the age of 19 he married Alice Mae Shorey at Somersworth, NH. They were married by F.L. Shapleigh, JP, 15 May 1891, and moved to Lynn two years later. He was an avid fisherman, loved to play baseball, and even though he was in semi-retirement at the outbreak of the Second World War, he went to work in the Boston Navy Yard to help the war effort.
Most of their children and some of their grandchildren were born in the family home at 2 Hillcrest Avenue, atop Pine Hill, in Lynn, Mass. This was one of two houses at the top, and I (Ernest S. Jr.) recall picking blueberries next to the house, wandering the paths to the edge of a gravel pit, on top of which sat a large rock which was nicknamed "Stagecoach Rock" because of an indentation resembling a seat. We spent many hours playing cowboys and Indians on that rock. The family also had many gatherings at the house, notably each Fourth of July when the uncles would each buy an assortment of fireworks and set those off as it became dark, then we would watch the aerial display from Manning Bowl.
A notable event occurred, I believe at the wedding of Alice Jane Pelley, which took place at the house. Ice cream was served which had been kept cold in a large quantity of dry ice. One of the cousins (Bruce Cormack always got the blame) dropped some of the ice in the large concrete goldfish pond in the backyard, causing it to boil and bubble and smoke.
Ernest E. died of a brain hemorrhage. He was a member of the Paul revere Lodge, Knights of Pythias, was financial secretary of Mystic Lodge, No. 19, A.O.U.W. for more than 40 years, and a member of the Advent Christian Church.
His son, Ernest S. wrote in his column, Shots 'n Casts in the Beverly Times:
"I have just recently lost one of my best fishing pals. The day that I saw the light of the world for the first time, he was out smelt fishing, so I come by my angling ambitions naturally. Many is the trout stream we waded together, and many a time had we been out in the harbor after mackerel. When the fish weren't biting very well, he would tell me about trout fishing in his youth on a farm. How they would cut long poles and leave them in the barn to season. Whenever they needed a rod they always had one at hand. By tying a short piece of line on the end and with a hook and a worm they could catch enough brook trout to make a good meal. Horn pouting, or perch fishing as they did it more than 60 years ago, were all fascinating stories. He really knew how to fish a trout brook and catch trout, where it seemed that none could exist. I will always remember our many fishing trips and other enjoyable times together. I will probably never realize the many things he did and sacrifices he made to make life a little easier for me. Yes, it is hard to lose a fishing pal. Particularly when he was your father."
I also remember the years when he, my father and I would pick anemones from the pilings in Beverly Harbor for research at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. I never knew how this came to be, but Beverly apparently had the best for research, and I remember Dad getting me up early in the morning to catch the lowest low tides and we would rent a dory and poke along the pilings, reaching down into the cold water, getting fingernails under the
foot of the anemones and pulling them off the piling. Once the tide had come up, we would go in for me to go to school and Dad to go to work, while Grampa packed the anemones in ice in wooden kegs for shipment by train to Woods Hole. I think they were paid 10 cents each for them.

Notes:

How many Jonathan Ellises are there? In 1810 there was a Jonathan Ellis in Rochester, and none in Maine. In 1820, there is no Jonathan in Rochester, but one in Rome, ME, living next door to Thomas Rankins, Samuel Bickford and Ephraim Mosher. Jonathan lived in Rome, or Waterville, at least through 1850. From 1820 on he lives near the Rankins family. The IGI shows Jonathan's spouse was Mary Jane Rankins. She is called Jane in the 1850 and 1860 census. We can only assume that Jonathan first married Jane (Jenny) Hartford, then married Mary Jane Rankins, though there is no clear break in the children's ages, nor is there any death or marriage record. Of course, there could have been two Jonathans! This Jonathan also could have been the son or grandson, of the Jonathan whom we have listed as this Jonathan's father.
In 1830 they lived next door to George W. Mosher and Daniel Stevens and two doors from Joseph Rankins and Nathaniel Tuttle. In 1820, a man born between 1765 and 1794 lived with them. Could this have been Jonathan's father, Jonathan?
