Whether or not you are an Ellis, this book may have information that you are looking for. There is a lot of information on the Phillips, Belding, Ranney, Annable families of Ashfield, MA. Other families include Smith, Flower, Dimick.

This review is from: Biographical Sketches of Richard Ellis: The First Settler of Ashfield, Mass. and His Descendants (Paperback)

Very useful book for more than just the title implies. I bought it for a friend of mine with the last name "Flower" as a sort of "geneology gift" (his great love). He's glued to it nightly! The stories and the families within the book are far greater than is illustrated in the title and is helpful for tracking other geneological links/families. I like it for the historical documentation for those with unrelated families, as to travel & routes taken; lifestyles (clothing, food, day-to-day living); construction (i.e. how and why the Erie Canal was built and the impact on the Midwest and Western U.S.); and the true sacrifices ALL our forefathers made in prior generations. Well worth the money even for just a couple chapters.
