Subject: [ELLIS-DNA] help with Ellis family: IL. to MO.

I am new to researching genealogy so please bear with me!

I am a grand daughter of Dorris Cathern ELLIS born in Campbell MO in
1910. She was the baby of a very large family - her father was 57
when she was born so she never knew much about his family since her
cousins were more like aunts and uncles. I do not know if my
grandmother had any brothers. I believe her birth mother's first name
was Cora.
If she did have brother ( half or otherwise) they would have been
born between about 1873 and 1908. They would be listed as children of
CALEB ELLIS who was the son of MASTIN ELMORE ELLIS.
CALEB was born 1853 in HAMILTON COUNTY ILLINOIS though I do not know
where his children would have been born since my grandmother was born
in MO.
ALSO NOTE: This is not the same Caleb ELLIS b. abt 1823 who would
have been an uncle to my great grandfather.

Does anyone have any information about any of these people?
Thanks!
