Notes for Joseph Ellis & Harriett Amelia (Family)
In 1880 Census, Joseph, Harriet, Milton and Richard were living in Louisville, Kentucky, where his occupation was listed as "railroad clerk". The family moved to Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1883, where Jospeh & Harriett remained until 1929. In the 1910 Census, he and Harriett are living in Salt Lake City (as are both sons, Milton & Richard, though not in the same house) where he is listed as a rail road agent. In this Census, Harriett states she had four children, two of whom were living. In the 1920 Census in Salt Lake City, evidently retired from the rail road, he is listed as working as a hotel security guard. Additional information is illegible. In 1930, they are listed as living with Milton’s family on a farm in Montgomery Co., Tennessee.
