Hi, I have alot of cross names here, although i dont have your exact names i htink they were related to my ancestors,
Daniel Ellis married Catherine Westfall, married in 1840 she was born in 1817 her parents were George Westfall And ?
As well daniels son James oakley ellis married a martha westfall in 1877 her parents were Leonard Westfall and Jane ? which would make her georges sister...
the catch here is that daniels mother was Catherine ostrom!
the names your looking for here are actaully popular!
i actually talked to a gentleman today that is a westfall and his sister might have some info... i can tell you the westfall homestead was a pink house on the top of gilmors hill and if you know Trenton very well you would know where the 401 and sidney streets meet that land was given to James and Martha from her parents... (where tim hortons is now)if you wish to chat more about this my email is [email protected]
hope this helps....
thanks
