He was born November 28, 1842, marries June 17, 1861, and raised a large family of children. There is a wife and nine children, 7 boys, and 2 girls, 56 grand children to mourn his loss. May God's richest blessings rest upon each and every one who rendered their service in the sickness and death of our dear father. -His son, L. C. Ellington NOTES: He was born in Upson Co, Ga. He married On June 17, 1861, Miss LOU CREASY RODGERS. The two lived a happy life together, but they were departed when the death angel came. Information from his Grandchild- IDA M.
