notes: 
Henry Ellis was agent on an expedition organized by Arthur Dobbs to discover the Northwest Passage. The captains of the two ships of the expedition, William Moor and Francis Smith, concluded that no passage to the northwest existed at the head of Wager Bay. Forced by bad weather, the company wintered over on Hayes River, about three miles from Fort York.
