Our Ellsworth Ancestors, part 1

Published in 1956, "Our Ellsworth Ancestors" was a landmark book that attempted to lay out the entire posterity and known ancestry of Edmund Lovell Ellsworth, the much-esteemed pioneer ancestor of many of the Mormon Ellsworths of the American Southwest and grandfather of our George Franklin, Jr. That book did a great job on the life of Edmund and the branches of his posterity, but it has two great weaknesses when seen from today: A) it gave the wrong ancestry, tracing the family erroneously to the Ellsworths of Windsor, Connecticut and ultimately to Somerset, England when later research proved that we are, in fact, descended instead from the Aylesworths of Massachusetts and earlier from Cornwall, England; and B) it was published more than 50 years ago. At that time the children of George Franklin Ellsworth, Jr. (hereafter just “Frank”, as he was known by his family and peers) and Annie Dean (“Annie”) were still having children.
