  Edward "was brought to Virginia by Benjamin Carrill, 1636, or somewhat
  earlier." Carrill obtained grants of land based on transportation for
  himself and wife and 12 others, including Edward Ellis. "It is supposed
  that in accordance with custom Edward Ellis repaid the cost of his
  passage by serving his patron for a term of years... By 1655 he had
  applied for and received a grant of 100 acres." "Edward Ellis lived in
  James City County, in the part which became Surry in 1652. By 1655 he
  was living on Chippeakes Creeks." "The Ellis Line from Surry-Sussex in
