  • Name Nathaniel John ELLIS 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Mar Q 1858  Abbotsleigh, Blackawton, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • Birthplace shown in the censuses as Halwell to 1881, Blackawton from 1891. In the intervening years Abbotsleigh, where his parents and then Nathaniel himself farmed changed from being in Halwell parish to Blackawton parish, when a detached part of the parish of Halwell was joined onto Blackawton.
      I am assuming that Abbotsleigh was where Nathaniel was born, hence the change in the place in the censuses.

    Farmer 
    • In the Western Times of 8 May 1903 it seems today surprising to find the Blackawton correspondent had considered the following sufficiently newsworthy to send in (and the paper to print):
      Blackawton
      Mr. Ellis, of Abbotsleigh, has had the mis-fortune to lose a valuable heifer in calf. It was quite well the evening previous to being found dead.
