  Father	Mr John ELLESDON,   bur. 21 Apr 1668, St. Michael the Archangel’s Church, Lyme Regis, Dorset, England
  Mother	Mrs Sarah,   bur. 7 Jan 1677/78, St. Michael the Archangel’s Church, Lyme Regis, Dorset, England
  Married	John's wife No other Ellesdon events found in Lyme Regis in the second half of the C17th than for John and his family and his brother William and his family. Their father Anthony had mentioned no wife in his will so appears to have died a widower. With evidence that William's wife was buried in Charmouth (from a monument there) it would seem that widow Mistress Sarah Ellesdon was John's widow. Children There is a large gap in the baptisms (or births) in Lyme Regis register to 1653, and a small gap from 1660 to 1665. It is possible that John had one or more children before Grace, and probable that he and Sarah had 2 or 3 children between John (1658) and Mary (1666).

  Family	Honour CLAPCOTT,   d. Between 4 Nov 1724 and 20 Aug 1725
  Married	Est 1680
  	Some Chancery Court docs (not yet seen) refer to John Ellesdon and his wife Honour, and the dates are appropriate for this John and his wife. A widow Honour of Lydd left a will (1725), mentioning sons Thomas and Anthony. A John of Lydd also left a will in 1715; an unnamed wife mentioned but no children so I am guessing that that John was a son of John and Honour and not the husband of Honour.
