Hi, this is quite the mystery!! LOL I took a peek but haven't been able to find anything on a marriage between Francis & Ellen in the NS Vitals Stats. I did notice that someone in another tree had Ellen's parents listed as a John R Pitts & Sarah Rebecca Fish -- children were born in Ellershouse, Hants, NS. I am wondering whether the "Pitts" may have been shortened from Pettipas -- I have seen it done in some families from Antigonish County. Although their son, Gordon Francis Purcell, has his mother's name as "Helen Dixon Pettipas" -- I believe she is the same person as Ellen Dixon Pitts -- twin to Sarah Alice Pitts and daughter of John & Sarah of St Croix, Hants Co, NS.
