  • Notes 
    • According to correspondence from a lawyer and a real estate brokerage house
      in New York City, Mary Ellen is descended from one Benjamin Cornish, who bought
      some property in Newtown, New York in 1695. There is a pedigree chart and a
      set of family group sheets that show this, somewhere in the archives of New
      York. I am presently (Apr 1990) trying to locate this proof.
