Unfortunately, none of my family has any contact with and Ely's, nor do I know any who live around me. There is an Ely road not far from me, so I know they used to be in this area. The closest I can get is my father who is still living but he is a Gaston and two generations away from Ethel.
Your info was key to helping me figure her out, I had not seen that marriage license before. Thanks again!
