William Ellery

I have added a picture of William Ellery to my website at http://www.belton.me.uk/Pages/Galleries_Pages/Ellerygallery/ellery_gallery.htm#williamellery1 At first glance, the framed picture looks like a portrait, but actually it is a very good pencil drawing, possibly with some sort of pastel highlights. The photograph is good, not perfect, as I did not want to risk taking the picture out of its frame.

When was the portrait drawn? Mr Ellery appears to be at about retirement age, so between 1891 and 1901, perhaps? William Ellery was my great great grandfather.
