Just had a look on Family Search.

Could it be Eagles?

Sorry, Ignore that above answer! Just checked again. It is Elets. The baptism is on Family Search old site.

ellis would make more sense than ellits.

ellis would make more sense than ellits.

yep it sure would, though you have to remember that the folks from the midlands have a definate accent and Ellis could definately be misconstrued as Ellits/Elets
