This page is still being researched. It has NOT yet been launched formally into the Database but is shown here TEMPORARILY (albeit for an uncertain length of time pending further research), partly to record connections that we fear we might otherwise lose sight of and partly in the hope that one or more visitors to the site will contribute information that will enable us to develop our information on the families covered in this page to a standard that would support release of a dedicated page in the Database.

Welbore Ellis, Bishop of Meath
Wikipedia identifies Welbore Ellis, Bishop of Kildare & Meath (b c1651, d 01.01.1734) as 4th son of Rev. John Ellis (b c1606, d 1681, rector of Waddesdon). Commoners (vol 3, Burroughes of Long Stratton) suggests that Welbore "sprang" from Henry Ellis, younger son of William Ellis of Kidhall, but that is not possible given that Dugdale reported that that William was aged 22 in 09.1665 (i.e. was b c1643).

This section first shown here 07.05.26. It was originally launched on 20.09.13 as the top section of Reeve1 when that was a DRAFT page. That page was reviewed on 07.05.26 when it was accepted that that there was little chance of our making a significant improvement to it in the near future and that the middle & upper sections were 'good enough' to be promoted into the main database. They now appear on Reeve1. However, not least because we were unable to check it against its source, identified below, we feel that the following section is not 'good enough' to be promoted into the main database.
