Biography

Ellis H. Roberts dedicated himself to public service, representing constituents in the halls of Congress and later guiding the nation’s currency as Comptroller, always showing a measured concern for responsible governance during a time of change.

He remained connected to his home community until his passing in 1918, and Forest Hill Cemetery shelters the rest of a statesman who valued both policy and people.
