Being one of the oldest wards (created in 1733), this area has seen a diverse array of activity, from slave trade to other civic and political activities. And its name has also seen several changes over time based on different influences. Originally it was named Decker Ward for one of the first Trustees. It was renamed for Sir Henry Ellis, the second Royal Governor of the Colony of Georgia. It was also called Marketplace Square, as it was the center of commerce from the 1730's through the 1950's.
