Hello to everyone from cold Michigan! I'm attempting to solve an ancestral mystery..... Down through EVERY line of our ELLIOT family in Quebec, Canada and Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, USA - we have all been told that our immigrant Scottish ancestor Robert Elliot (b.? 1760? m. 1788 in Sorel, Quebec, Canada to Louise Josephte Savoie) came from "brete de coq" or "tete de coq" in Scotland. I was told, during a Clan Elliot International reunion that there is a Coq Island, and Coq River .... in Northhampton. But, unable to find a Robert Elliot there, I'm wondering if there isn't some landmark, landscape feature that might explain the "brete" or "tete" - in French, tete is "head" and I don't know what "brete" is.... Anyone have any ideas? Help? Thank you for any information you might give, Sincerely, Judy Muhn
