Hi all,
    I am looking for any hints on my Ellis family from Kinlough, Leitrim. My Great Grandmother was born Anne Ellis in Kinlough, and het parents were called John and Mary Ellis.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Rootschat. Perhaps if you could give us some more details (dates especially) we might be able to help you. It's also a good idea to tell us where you've already search and what information you've already found (or not found).

My Ellis family was living in Wardhouse, Leitrim, so perhaps this spark a memory.
