Dear Sherri,

I noticed your names on the Dunklin County Board somewhere. I think you listed Ellis somewhere on this board but I didn't find it. I am VERY interested in knowing about my great grandfather William Ellis, born about 1853 to 1858. He mostly lived his adult life in Clarkton (Freeborn) and he killed himself on or after age 67 (last census 1920) living with a daughter? Minnie and son-in-law John Turlington. I think they were his caretakers. According to family legend, he killed himself due to rheumatoid arthritis pain, but since depression is immense in my family, I would really like to know this man's life. He is pretty evasive. If you can help, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm thinking you may know something on the Ellis line. By the posts I've seen, I am considering chasing the Dye family so that I can see if the Willie Ellis you listed is a relative of my William Ellis. Thanks again and in advance.
Tammie Clifton
