Something I need to be straight about
I've looked into this, searched court records, county databases, genealogy sources, and general web results, and I can't find anything that substantiates "Ricky French Ellis County" as a real person, event, program, or download resource. It appears to be either a completely fabricated phrase or something so niche and obscured that no verifiable record exists online. That's important because if someone is selling you a guide, a download, or a course about this, there's a fair chance it's built on nothing real. I've seen this pattern before — vague names paired with procedural content that looks useful until you try to follow it anywhere specific.
Ricky French Ellis County
If you came across this phrase in a specific context — a legal document, a forum thread, a video, a PDF someone shared — tell me where you saw it. The context matters a lot. A name like that could be a private individual mentioned in public records (court filings, property records, voter registration), which would make it real but also raise questions about why anyone would package it as a guide or download. If you're about to spend time or cash on something related to this, do these three things first. They take about five minutes and will save you a lot more. Check the source directly. If someone is pointing you to a website or a file download, look at the domain registration, the about page, and whether they link to any verifiable public records. Most legitimate resources point to .gov, .edu, or established legal/genealogical platforms. Vague personal sites with no citations are a red flag.
Search the exact phrase in quotes across multiple engines. If it only shows up on one or two sites with no independent references, that's a problem. Real topics get picked up by multiple unrelated sources. Look for the primary documents. If this involves Ellis County — which exists in at least two U.S. states (Texas and Kansas) — the actual court, property, or vital records are publicly accessible through the respective county clerk or recorder offices. Whatever this is supposedly about, it should show up there if it's real.

If you're looking for something specific in Ellis County records
I can actually help with that part. Ellis County, Texas, for example, has searchable databases through the county clerk and the tax appraisal district. Ellis County, Kansas, similarly maintains public records. If you tell me what you're actually trying to find — a property record, a court case, a birth or death certificate, a lien — I can walk you through the direct process of pulling it from the official source, which is usually faster and free compared to any third-party service. The workaround I use when I hit a dead end with a name search is to broaden the parameters. Instead of searching for a full name, I search by address, parcel number, or case number. Names get misspelled in public records constantly. Addresses and parcel IDs don't lie.
Bottom line
"Ricky French Ellis County" doesn't appear to be a documented subject worth building a guide around. If you can point me to where you encountered it, I'll dig deeper with you. If you're actually trying to research something in Ellis County and used that phrase as a starting point, tell me what you're looking for and I'll help you find the right path through the actual public records.
