Ann Ellice1,2,3

Family
Father*Joseph Ellice2,4 d. 6 Mar 1663/64
Mother*Ann __?__4
Relationship Note*The Colver-Culver source stated that Ann was the daughter of John Ellice, one of the signers of the Dedham Covenant. It is believed that the John Ellice, who signed the Covenant, was more likely her brother. According to the Bloodlines and Inbreeding source, John's parents were Ann and Joseph Ellice and because this researcher believes that John and Ann were siblings, her parents were likely Ann and Joseph Ellice also.2,4 
Birth*Ann Ellice was probably born in England.5 
Marriage*19 September 1638She married Edward Colver on 19 September 1638 in First Church, Dedham, Massachusetts Bay Colony. Their marriage was the second entered in the records of the First Church of Dedham, which probably at that time consisted of a small congregation meeting in the houses of the members. The Reverend John Allyn was the pastor, having been ordained shortly before performing the Colver marriage.2,1
