Misc. Notes
Samuel Caldwell Ellis lived in Tennessee, Arkansas and Kansas.
In November 1866 Samuel Calwell Ellis, James Ross and Matt Fields with their families moved to Billingsley, Arkansas, 12 miles south of Fayetteville. James Ross was a brother-in-law and Matt Fields a cousin. In the fall of 1869 Samuel Ellis left Billingsley and traveled to Kansas to the home of a cousin, Rufus Ellis, who lived one mile south and one mile east of what is now Homewood, Kansas. The trip took 12 days. The family decided to remain in Kansas. They lived in Ottawa, Kansas where Samuel worked as a carpenter and at one time worked in a furnature factory in Ottawa. Samuel died 20 October 1884 of Trichinosis and is buried in the Douglas Cemetery, one mile south of Homewood.
