Nancy Ellis
who did James Erza Ellis marry and who is the mother of Rev William Austin Ellis

Marsha Gail Kamish

(1790 - 1871)
Family:
Daughter of Roger Handley and Margaret Erskine
Wife of James Ezra Ellis

Nancy Ellis (Rowland) MP
Gender: Female
Birth: 1792
Georgia, United States

Place of Burial: Harmony Cemetery, Blue Ridge, Fannin County, GA, United States
Immediate Family:
Wife of James Ezra Ellis

According to Family Search, he was married to Ms. McClure and she was William Austin's mother. Because of this source, I'll remove the other wife.

Marsha Gail Kamish are the two women the same person?:

No Nancy Rowland Ellis showed up when I did a google search so it's possible they are the same person. The matches from MyHeritage show that Nancy McClure's mother's maiden name was Rowland so I'm going to merge the two. It's possible the person who created the Rowland profile got confused. Thanks for pointing this out.

Thank you, Marsha Gail Kamish!

BTW, none of the sources I found had her parents listed. The matches on MyHeritage consistently use her maiden name of McClure but state her parents were named Handy. Confusion here.

She is a different person-- can you untag Nancy wife of James?

This is wife of Elisha...:
