Untitled[edit]

Henriettea Ellery Sedgwick was the daughter of Robert Sedgwick (Henry Dwight Sedgwick I's brother) and Elizabeth Dana Ellery (daughter of William Ellery and Abigail (Shaw) Ellery). Thus Henry Dwight Sedgwick II married his 1st cousin, another Sedgwick. William Ellery's fame comes from this gutsy, successful merchant signing the "Declaration of Independence".
