Answer 1

These first 2 links are very small family trees each showing a different child of Ellis and Nancy, but Maude Esther has not been listed on either.

ELLIS GOOLSBY

Spouse:

NANCY EASTRIDGE

Children:

EDWARD GOOLSBY b: 25 OCT 1883 d: 16 JUL 1936

Ellis Goolsby

  Spouse: Nancy Estrig

Children: Julia Goolsby b: 1878

http://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.co...

This link below is a family  tree which lists Ellis, Nancy and Maude, but I should warn you it's full of errors. It shows Ellis Goolsby b 1847 in TN and 1845 in MO,  1 marriage to Sarah Nesbitt is listed and another to his brother? Francis Marion Goolsby.  It gets worse - it has Sarah Nesbitt also married to Ellis' brother and she is married to Nancy Eastridge???  

It also show Maude E. Goolsby b. 1899  (spouse James Ahab Mullins) as the daughter of Marion and Sarah.  There are  duplicates of several individuals, some may be correct but it's basically a mess.

According to the 1900 census records, Maude was born in 1889, Ellis married Sarah in 1893, Sarah is 53 and has had 2 children (both living).  If you know that Maude was Nancy's daughter then Nancy must have died between 1889 - 1893.

Answer 3

This isn't my family tree, but Ancestry does have him in a couple of public trees:

You might consider contacting the persons who posted this information, perhaps you'll be able to piece together your data as I was able to do with a distant cousin of mine (who had pictures of the great-great-great grandparents!).

I hope that helps!
