Mr. Ellington, along with his brother, Douglas D. Ellington, had an architectural office in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania in 1920. In 1926, they moved the office to Asheville, NC, where Mr. Douglas Ellington designed a number of amazing buildings through the 1920s.
In 1926, the Ellington brothers began construction of a charming home in Chunn's Cove near Asheville, using left over materials from their building projects. This is one of the most charming homes I've ever seen, and was later lived in by Kenneth Ellington's daughter, the famed wildlife artist Sallie Ellington Middleton.
The family appears to have moved to Washington, DC in the 1930s, and to Charleston, SC in 1937, but they maintained a summer home at Chunn's Cove.
Margaret Roberts and Kenneth Ellington had four children, an infant daughter, born & died in 1921, Sallie Williamson Ellington (1926-2009, Mrs. G. A. Middleton), Martha Tucker Ellington (1927-1992, Mrs. Thomas Pettigrew) and Dr. Eric Edward Ellington (1934-1972, m. Ann Morton).
