Notes: From the History of Queens County, NB by E. Stone Wiggins, 1876. "Ellsworth, William, a U.E. Loyalist, came to St. John in 1783, and afterwards settled at Young's Cove, on the farm now owned and occupied by Alexander Gale. His wife's maiden name was Mehetable McMann. His children were: Benjamin, who married El izabeth Young; John, Elizabeth Sharp; Israel, Hannah Reece; Handford, Sarah Ferris; Rebecca, David Stillwell; Rhoda, John A. Sowers; Catharine, Thomas Flower. Israel, son of Israel; John, son of John; Donald, George, and John, are comfortable far mers in Queens." From "Early Baptists": "The Birthday of the Mill Cove Church could be considered as being on the 26th of June 1825 for it was then that John Branscomb, Ann McLean, Ann Elsworth and Mary Ferris were baptized. John Branscomb was the son of Arthur Branscomb and married Mar y Wiggins. Ann McLean married David McIntosh and lived in Mill Cove. Ann Elsworth was a daughter of William Elsworth. Her brother, Hanford, married Sarah Ferris, a daughter of George Ferris, the Loyalist. Mary Ferris was a daughter of John and Ma ry Ferris. The upper storey of their stone house was used to hold church services." I've not found any other record of this Ann Ellsworth, and SUSPECT she was same as Rebecca, Rhoda, or Catherine.
