Alexander John Ellis (1814-1890), philologist and mathematician, was born on 14 June 1814 at Hoxton Middlesex, the son of James Birch Sharpe. He attended Shrewsbury School and Eton College, before matriculating at Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1833 (B.A., 1837). In 1825 he changed his name to Ellis by Royal Licence. He was admitted to the Middle Temple in 1835. Ellis produced works on phonetics, pronounciation, dialects and orthography, and in 1843 arranged a new system of printing called phonotypy in collaboration with Sir Isaac Pitman. He was president of the Philological Society, 1872-1874 and 1880-1882. He died on 28 October 1890.
