- Father*: Thomas Ellis b. 1804
- Mother*: Charlotte Andrews b. 1805
- Note*: Samuel Ellis According to relatives, Samuel Ellis was a quiet, unassuming man. Always gentle and reserved, he never lost his temper with his children or, for that matter, raised his voice to any person.
While Samuel was beginning a fisherman’s life in Caplin Cove, a young woman a few miles away in Hant’s Harbour was living with friends. Her father had died when she was fourteen and since her mother could not raise seven children on her own, several family friends agreed to raise the children themselves. - Birth*: He was born on 11 May 1844 in Caplin Cove, Newfoundland.
- Marriage*: He married Rachel Adey, daughter of Martin Jr. Adey and Amelia Bright, on 4 November 1871 in Hant's Harbour, Newfoundland; Rachel and Samuel were married on Nov. 4, 1871, at Hant’s Harbour by Rev. Charles Comben. Samuel was 27 years old, Rachel 19. The service was conducted at the home of Richard and Mary Ann Pelley. Richard and Mary served as witnesses to the marriage ceremony, as did Rachel’s mother, Amelia.
At that time, Samuel was living with his mother in the house that his father, Thomas, had first built when he and his brother had decided to settle in Caplin Cove. Samuel’s brothers and sisters had already married and started their own homes. Samuel’s father, Thomas, had died a few years earlier. After the marriage ceremony, Samuel’s mother faced the prospect of living alone in the house that had, at one time, sheltered a large and busy family.
Samuel, then, brought his new bride back to the house that would now be shared between Samuel, Rachel and Samuel’s mother, who, according to York Ellis, was a "good old soul who smoked a clay pipe". Samuel and Rachel did not build their own home until after Samuel’s mother died.
Also according to York, when Samuel and Rachel were married "poor old grandfather (Samuel) had 50 cents and poor old grandmother had a little brown hen. They were married Friday night. Saturday morning she had to get up and take her ax and go up over the hill to cut enough wood for Sunday". - Death*: He died on 28 February 1918 at age 73.

- Note*: Simeon Dunn Ellis Simeon Dunn Ellis, named after the minister of the day, came into the world on August 16, 1872 He married Mary Louise Mercer of Bay Roberts and moved to St. John's. After his wife's untimely death, Simeon returned home and asked his parents to raise his children. Elsie, Jessie and York Ellis were left at Caplin Cove with Samuel and Rachel. Simeon joined thousands of others on the other side of the continent in search of gold. While he was away, Elsie, at age 13, died of tuberculosis. A brave and intelligent child, she, aware of her circumstance, chose the hymns and readings for her final service.
Simeon spent the next twenty years participating in the Klondike gold rush. When he returned home, he was crippled with arthritis, and eventually was confined to bed.
One person who helped to take care of Simeon in his later days was his younger brother, Herb. While bedridden, Simeon would spend hours talking to Herb about his days at the Klondike. Some of these stories must have been very interesting. Simeon died on May 24, 1937. - Marriage*: He married Mary Louise Mercer; Simeon Dunn Ellis, named after the minister of the day, came into the world on August 16, 1872.

- Father*: (?) Ellis
- Note*: Thomas Ellis Around the year 1820, two teenagers, perhaps from a small community in southern England, set foot on Newfoundland soil. They were John and Thomas Ellis, respectively born in 1802 and 1804. Whether, they had intended or not, they would never again see their parents, their remaining brothers or sisters, or any of their relatives and friends. Home would now be called Newfoundland. The community in which they settled was called Scilly Cove (since renamed Winterton), in Trinity Bay.
Scilly Cove was named after the Scilly Isles, off the coast of England. It is difficult to know when this community was first inhabited. The earliest record of residents is a census taken in 1677, and gives the following information:
housekeepers wives sons daughters servants
Old Perlican 13 9 9 8 167
Scilly Cove 3 2 5 3 33
New Perlican 2 1 1 - 11
Another census, taken a few years later in 1697, records the following:
men fishing establishments boats
Old Perlican 130 19 27
Bay de Verde 85 14 16
Hant's Harbour 30 4 5
Scilly Cove 40 4 7
New Perlican 60 9 11
Heart's Ease 12 1 2
Heart's Content 20 4 4
These accounts are the first early references to these communities. Since the first settlement in Newfoundland began at Cupids in the 1600's, it is evident that these outports, by historical standards, were still very much in their infancy.
We are fortunate to have on record an early description of life at that time. Rev. James Balfour, an Anglican minister posted in Trinity in the 1700's, made several trips to nearby settlements to perform baptisms, marriages and burials. His comments on the community of Scilly Cove, written in 1772 are worth quoting verbatim.
"Scilly Cove is 12 leagues southwest from Trinity. It is a most barbarous lawless place. Here it is their usual custom to divert themselves during Sundays with the music of a piper carried in parade through the place. All my attempts could not bring them together for public worship. It would make any well-disposed person shiver to hear their horrid conversation of profane cursing and swearing. Here are sixteen wretched families".
Rev. Balfour was perhaps unnecessarily harsh in his assessment of a community in its infancy. Rev. Clinch, Balfour's replacement, noted that a "neat small church was built in Scilly cove in 1793". A Methodist church soon followed. Rev. N. A. Coster, a Church of England minister, wrote that "At Scilly Cove, a regular day school has been taught since 1777 by John Thomas. But is aging and in need of repair." Presumably, Coster was referring to the school and not the teacher! - Birth*: He was born in 1804 in England.
- Marriage*: He married Charlotte Andrews, daughter of Charles Andrews and Hester (?), circa 1823; Thomas and Charlotte were married around 1823, either by the Methodist preacher in Scilly Cove or by the Anglican minister in Trinity. The Scilly Cove Methodist records list Charlotte and Thomas Ellis as members of the local church in 1824. Other members at that time included Hester, Aaron and Amy Andrews. Perhaps Amy was Aaron’s wife.
An entry in the baptism records of the Anglican church in Trinity indicates that Charlotte and Thomas still retained Anglican ties even after joining the Scilly Cove Methodists. John Ellis, son of Thomas and Charlotte Ellis, was baptized by the Anglican priest on August 28, 1825. John’s birthday was August 1st.
Thomas and Charlotte remained at Scilly Cove for only a few years after their marriage. In 1826, Thomas and John sailed along the coast in search of a new home. They briefly considered settling in New Perlican, but finally decided on a tiny inlet, called Caplin Cove, near Hant’s Harbour. While Hant’s Harbour boasted a population of 200, only a few families lived at Caplin Cove. John and Thomas chose to build their homes close to each other, and near the sea.
York Ellis, one of Thomas and Charlotte’s many great-grandchildren, lived in Caplin Cove and Hant’s Harbour for most of his life. During one of my visits to the area, he took me to an area a few hundred feet from the site of Thomas’ house where one of Thomas and Charlotte’s children was buried. There was no cemetery, and the marker had not survived the years.
