I mean no disrespect to anyone's ancestor with the following information.
Calhoun Phillip Ellis was born in July 1843 in Logan County Va to Owen Ellis and Nancy Vance.
Phillip appears on the 1870 United States Federal Census for Logan County, WV Tridelphia District as follows:
Ellis, Phillip 25
Julia 30
Margaret 2
Browning, Valaria 25
Ellis, Harvey 17
*Note* (1) I believe Julia is the daughter of Isaac Browning and Christine Ellis. There is no known marriage record for Phillip and Julia.
*Note* (2) I believe Valaria Browning is Isaac Browning and Christine Ellis' twin daughter, her sister's name is Hannah. Hannah is listed on the 1870 WV Census Boone County Washington with her brother Patterson Browning. I believe Julia is an older sister to Valaria, Hannah, and Patterson.
