In the English descent from Leonard of Wonston I'm interested in any information there is but puzzled by some of the information around.The Parish Records for Wonston,a village just north of Winchester,show that Leonard Ely was one ofnine children of Nicholas Ely and Alyce Cannon born between 1546 and 1559.Leonard, married to Margaret Gore,had nine children between 1574 and 1591.This information is confirmed by Leonards Will held in the Hampshire Records Office and Probated in 1615.I have been following the line on down from then.Most of the entries in The IGI Family Trees should be treated with caution;very few of them are confirmed by official records.Will be very happy to share any other information.I'm particularly interested in proven links with the States
