History

The Col. Joseph Ellis House derives primary significance as the residence of Joseph Ellis (d. 1796), a political officeholder and important commander of local militia during the American Revolution. Born in Ellisburg, Gloucester (now Camden) County, Ellis married Mary, daughter of Jacob Hinchman, in 1760. The couple lived in this house.[3]

The house stands on land that belonged to John Hinchman, Sr., then, after his death, to Jacob Hinchman his youngest son.[3]

gollark: The best part is those baseband processors. Full access to basically all the radio hardware, decades of legacy code, entirely closed-source and probably unaudited!
gollark: All widely deployed software is inevitably awful, as they say.
gollark: Also that the entire phone hardware/software stack is a horrifying inconsistent mess.
gollark: It's very annoying that the high-performance phone SoCs which exist have terrible IO and/or aren't sold to the SBC-making companies.
