Records vary as to whether Mary was born in Oct. 1863 or Oct. 1865.

According to a family member, Anna (Rakes) Morris of Seymore, IN, the grave of Mary Ellis is marked by a big rock in Walnut Chapel Cemetery, near the grave of Mary's sister, Nancy Jane (Rakes) Lewis. No information was provided concerning the burial place of Mary's husband, John William Ellis.

Sequence of two markers and one rock (left to right) in one row:
Hazel G. and Albert V. Ellis; Oscar Ellis; "Ellis" (rock)

Nearby, in the row in back of the Ellis burials, is the marker for Nancy Jane Lewis and her husband.

Based on the above, the assumption is that the rock bearing the surname "Ellis" is the rock that marks the grave of Mary Ellis.

Seek further proof concerning burial of Mary Ellis and proof of where her husband, John William Ellis, is buried.
