Allan,Do you have a copy of Ellens marriage certificate which may have details about her parents names
seems that the surname changed to JAMESON earlier than you thought as they were using it for the marriage and the birth in victoria of Eleanor
There are too many births listed around 1839/40 for Ellen SULLIVANs in NSW bdm index to know which one is correct
It was not compulsory to register BDMsin 1839 so her birth/baptism may not be recorded
Are you taking the birth date from an age stated on her marriage or death cert as it may not be accurate
