She married Wellington Ellis on June 23, 1850. They were the parents of Sarah, James, Nelson Williard, John, Flora, and Charles. December 30, 1920 - The Newell Mirror - AUNT POLLY ELLIS completed her long life's journey last Sunday evening. She passed away at 8:30 o'clock at the home of her daughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Hunter. Death came as a welcome release from suffering. Aunt Polly Ellis was ninety years old July 17. We will publish the complete obituary next week. January 6, 1921 - The Newell Mirror - POLLY ELLIS died at Newell, Iowa, Dec. 26, 1920, at the ripe old age of 90 pears, 5 months and 9 days. Polly Ellis was born in the state of New York July 17, 1830. She was united in marriage to Willington Ellis on June 23, 1850. He preceded her to the eternal home about fourteen years ago. To this union six children were born, two daughters and four sons, three of which are still living: James Ellis and Charles Ellis of White Lake, So. Dak., and Flora Hunter of Newell. She has also one brother Asa Rounds and one sister Arena Blakesley who live to mourn their loss in Golden City, Missouri. These two are the sole survivors in a family of fourteen children. When ten years of age she moved from New York state to Pennsylvania where she resided until she reached womanhood and then moved to Wisconsin with her husband and in 1882 they came to reside in Newell. Iowa. Since the death of her life partner in 1907 she has made her home with her daughter Flora in Newell. In addition to the above she leaves to mourn her loss fifteen grandchildren and eleven great grandchildren. Early in life she united with the United Brethern church and through her long years her faith in her God has been clear and strong. Aunt Polly was a real mother in Israel, beloved by all who knew her. She loved to talk of the old days of fervent religious experience when to have the privilege to worship in the school houses on the prairies was accounted a supreme joy. She was a lover of the old hymns that have lived through the centuries and will continue to live. She lived her life as wife and mother in fidelity and love. Her New Morning has dawned in glory. She fell asleep here but has awakened in the land where nothing ever grows old. At eventide it was light, there was no "dark valley." Like one of old she could say "I have fought a good fight, I have finished the course; henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness." Good-night, beloved! A few more winter storms and summer suns and your smile shall greet us where partings are no more. The funeral service was held in the M.E. church Wednesday afternoon, Dec. 29, at two o'clock. The pall bearers were J.O. Ervin, John Wart C.T.J. Whitesitt, J.S. Cheney, R.J. Paeper and Frank Hines. The floral offerings, mute tokens of love and sympathy were very beautiful. The choir sung the hymns Aunt Polly had requested to be sung. The pastor, Rev. Joseph J. Share, preached an eloquent and comforting sermon. The interment took place in Newell cemetery, where Aunt Polly's earthly remains were laid to rest to await the resurrection to eternal life. The relatives from out of town who attended the funeral service were as follows: Charles Ellis and son Ernest of White Lake, South Dakota; Mrs. Joseph Evans of Albert City, who is a daughter-in-law of Mrs. Ellis; Mr. and Mrs. Harrison Ellis of Sac City. Owing to advanced age, Mrs. Ellis' brother and sister, Asa Rounds and Mrs. Arena Blakesley, both of Golden City, Mo., were unable to be present. James Ellis, one of her two sons at White Lake, South Dakota, was unable to be present owing to illness.
