List of Ellsworth Books

  of 1923

The best book for Josiah Ellsworth is written by a well-known historian. "The History of Ancient Windsor, Connecticut, including East Windsor, South Windsor and Ellington, prior to 1768..." by Henry R. Stiles, M.D. written in Albany NY, 1863. Available at Library of Congress, Daughters of the American Revolution Library, some local libraries, Family History Library.

German E. Ellsworth is an authority but some of his work is questioned. He has several books..."Our Ellsworth Ancestors," by German E. Ellsworth. Donated 1957. "Ellsworth Families of Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York," Collected by German E. Ellsworth, Previous to 1917. Available at Family History Library.

"Charles Ellsworth Soldier of the American Revolution and Elias VanWinkle Soldier of the American Revolution," by Rev. Garford Williams. Daughters of the American Revolution Library.

"Ancestors of Edmund Lovell Ellsworth," by Robert Blair Ellsworth. Available at the Family History Library.

"Ancestors and descendents of Chief Justice Oliver Ellsworth..." by Harriet Ellsworth Siebert, 1940. Available at the Family History Library.

"Ellsworth Genealogical Notes." Didn't write down the author. Handwritten manuscript containing Oliver Ellsworth researcher -- quite extensive work if you want to decipher the handwriting. Found at the Family History Library, Microfilm 0003002, Item 8.

"The Second Boat" a periodical dedicated to those who came to America on the Mary & John in 1630. Thomas Holcomb's daughter Elizabeth married Josiah Ellsworth so Thomas' genealogy contains all of the Ellsworth genealogy. Found at most genealogical research libraries.

If anyone knows of any other books containing information on the CT Ellsworths, please let me know.
