Hi Mary,

The church wedding record shows Jos H. Ennis married Eva Heinholt on Feb 12, 1884. I have seen marriage records of my family at this church that were mispelled so it is difficult to say which is correct. In any event, I believe you will find other family members at http://www.mitsawokett.com/churchrecords/asburymarriages.htm

Ennis & Deakyne in Smyrna was Delaware's oldest Ford dealership. It's interesting that the occupation listed on the WWI draft card was motorman. Perhaps a relationship there.

Although they were married at Asbury Methodist Church whose cemetery is Glenwood in Smyrna, your Ennis family was buried in Odd Fellows Cemetery in Smyrna. Here are some entries from Dill's 'Kent County Cemetery Records' from the 34 Ennis Graves listed in Odd Fellows:

Ennis, Eva M. ; b. 1862, d. 1947 Wife of Joseph H. Ennis; Lot 126
Ennis Joseph H. ; b. 1/24/1886, d. 7/19/1886; Son of Eva M and Joseph H. Ennis; Lot 126
Ennis, Jpseph H.; b.1857, d. 1934; Husband of Eva M. Ennis; Lot 126

There are only a few online at http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GScid=215101&GSln=ennis and you might find this relevent if you are researching the Ennis Family. One includes a photo: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GScid=224638&GSln=ennis

I'm not related - just a Delaware native who grew up in Smyrna.
