The "Christopher 1813" Tree The "Christopher 1813" Tree Christopher was the son of Matthew Ellerton (1782?-1828) and grandson of Matthew Ellerton (1744?-1824). The 1881 Census recorded him as an agricultural labourer, aged 69, living with his wife (67) in North Cowton.
Reuben, one of Christopher's sons, emigrated to the USA in 1882 - this is the line of researcher Hallie [1928-2006] who married a grandson of Reuben.
