Misc. Notes
SOURCE & INFORMATION:
Item 1.Samuel 4 Ellis with members of the Ellis family lived in South Harwich, and with others he signed a petition in 1746 to the General Court to set South Harwich aside as a separate precinct so that they could attend church in their own neighborhood, and thus be relieved of the long journey to North Harwich for that purpose, which petition was approved Jan. 16, 1746; the church building was erected on the lot just east of the estate of Samuel; being recognized as exceedingly meticulous in carrying out Church customs and forms, he (and one other) was selected in 1758 "to take care of the boys on the Lords day, and whip them if found playing;" was exceedingly active in 1777 in raising money for maintenance of the preacher and the church edifice; at the death of his father Samuel, before Sept. 9, 1744 he did not drop the use of Junior as part of his name; was (see notes) m. Nov. 29, 1746 as Samuel Jr. in order to differentiate between him and Samuel (the son of Cornelius) who was his elder.

Item 2.He is listed in the 1790 census as the head of a Harwich family of two males over 16, one under 16, and three females. Only two children are of record.
