A brief news article in Clinton, IL 16 Sept 1892 says she was born in Muskingum County, Ohio in 1822 and was in her 70th year at her death. It is further stated that she bore nine children, six living at the time of her death. All of the children visited her in Clinton during the recent summer. Nancy received a pension of $12 a month after her husband's death as a result of his Civil War service.
Nancy and Dr. Edward Ellis were married in Muskingum County, Ohio 11 Oct 1842.
Census records give their residences as follows: 1850 – Stafford, Monroe County, Ohio; 1860 – Carlisle, Noble County, Ohio; and after Edward's death, Nancy is in White Oak, McLean County, Illinois in 1870 with some of her children; 1880 – Wapella, DeWitt County, Illinois with daughters Matilda M. and Nancy J.
See her husband's memorial page for more information about the family.
Nola Eynon recorded Nancy's grave in Ohio at Curtis Ridge in the 1965 Noble County, Ohio, Cemetery Inscriptions. An open space beside her husband's stone is probably where her stone was located, but it is no longer standing.
When Nola Eynon recorded in her publication the stone for Nancy Ellis in Curtis Ridge Cemetery, she wrote that no dates were on her stone. Her husband, Dr. Ellis, died in 1862, at which time, perhaps, she purchased a stone for him and one for herself to be inscribed later.
UPDATE:
"While in Woodlawn cemetery in De Witt County Clinton Illinois I came across Nancy Ellis' stone along with McKinney stones in a family plot. I took pictures and added to the site...I thought it might be worthy of taking a few pictures.

Because Nancy lived in Illinois (see census records above) with her family after her husband died, and this information has now surfaced, I believe Nancy had a stone set for herself beside her husband, but her family in Illinois did not return her to Curtis Ridge when she died in 1892.
A memorial page which I entered 27 Jan 2017 in Curtis Ridge Cemetery, Noble County, Ohio, for Nancy, based on the Eynon inscription publication, is now merged with this page to make her record correct.
