Storms

Lucy Ann

1815 – 1886

 

 

Lucy (Storms) Ellis

Born in 1815 in Garrad County, Kentucky, Lucy Ann Storm(s) is the daughter of Conrad Storm(s) Jr. and his first wife Eleanor East. In 1834, she married David Ellis in Ripley County, Indiana.

 

Moving to Illinois

Lucy gave birth to eight known children likely all in Ripley County, Indiana.  In 1870, after David appears to have died, Lucy is found living in La Salle County, Illinois with several of her children.  They had moved sometime after 1860.  One might have thought it was due to the Civil War.  However, not all the children moved, which makes it less likely.

 

The Move West

In 1878, Lucy and several of her children and grandchildren moved west to Neosho County, Kansas.  Lucy died there in 1886.
