He is mentioned in the 1806 will of Ann Burt, Lucy's aunt. The will also mentions Lucy Channing. Lucy's sister Elizabeth married Francis Dana; so it is likely that Lucy named a son after his uncle. This was a custom in the Ellery family, to name children after their aunts and uncles.

"He entered Harvard in 1831, but in 1834, having trouble with his eyes, he had to leave college. Compelled to give up all literary work he shipped before the mast as a seaman on the brig 'Pilgrim,' sailing around the Horn to California. After two years he returned on the 'Alert,' arriving in Boston, Sept. 19, 1836. He then re-entered Harvard College, graduating in 1837; LL.B. Harvard, 1839; admitted to the bar in 1840; honorary degrees; D.C.L., Hobart College, 1853; LL.D., Harvard, 1866.
He was also very prominent in the protection of fugitive slaves, risking his life and career in their behalf.
In 1840 he published "Two Years Before the Mast," an account of his voyage, which became famous. An author's edition was brought out in 1868 with a concluding chapter, "Twenty-Four Years After." He published many books and articles, among them "The Seaman's Friend," 1841, a London edition of which appeared in 1856. "To Cuba and Back" appeared in 1859.
He was a member of the Constitutional Convention from Manchester, 1853, and a Representative from Cambridge to the General Court, 1867-68. He was an overseer of Harvard College, 1865-77. He was an Episcopalian, member of St. Paul's Church, Boston, became one of the founders of the Church of the Advent, Boston, 1843; a vestryman of that parish, 1843-81; and a trustee of St. Paul's School, Concord, N.H., 1866-82. He was considered a brilliant lecturer on judicial and political subjects.
During his lifetime he made many trips abroad, visiting the Duke of Argyll at Inveraray, Scotland, in 1856, and making a tour of the world in 1859.
