We are looking into our family history, so far we have the Elliott (sometimes spelt Ellit/Ellet) going back to a Porter Elliott around the Necton area of Norfolk in England. So far we cannot find where he was born, or where the family came from before Norfolk. It is possible the main stay of the family was mining and farming. Our part of the family settled in North East England, around Newcastle/Sunderland/Middlesbrough areas. Can anyone help? Thank you, Colin Elliott (now residing in Australia)

After getting my Y-DNA Tests back with the Haplogroup being R1a, I would say Elliotts in the Scandinavia area is more than definitely real. The Viking raids on the British Isles would give some explanation to this Haplogroup being in Southern England. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ed & Oleda Merrick Sent: Tuesday, February 06, 2007 12:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elliott] Elliotts of Sweden My grandmother told me when I was a child that people would say her Elliotts were Scottish, but that was not true.

I would suggest reading "Trace Your Roots with DNA" by Megan Smolenyak Smolenyak and Ann Turner. I found this book to be most helpful in trying to understand this subject of DNA and Genealogy. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of V Hurst Sent: Tuesday, February 06, 2007 12:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elliott] William Elliott born 1805 in athlone. - Scottish? this is really interesting. So do I understand correctly that you have to be a direct decendant of a surname ie your father/mother had to be an Elliott for instance to be able to have correct DNA info done for that particular line? Meaning...my grandfather was an Elliott so it would be of no use for my brother to be tested for Elliott DNA?

Then, of course, there is the theory of a Norman origin for the Eliots of Southwest England. Not all Normans were descended from Vikings, but many were, and your haplotype could easily be of Norwegian origin - not directly, but by way of Normandy. There are, in fact, many Scots of Viking descent as well. There were also many Vikings and half-Viking, half-Gaelic settlers in Northwest England and in Galloway - both areas near where the Scottish Elliotts originated. There are actually two other Elliotts in my group with I1a signatures. The closest to you is only a 9/12 match unfortunately. Both of these Elliotts are from England too, but at least one of them claims a fairly detailed pedigree leading back to Newcastleton in the Scottish Borders.

It worked me by just clicking on the URL in this email. If I understood you correctly, your Haplogroup is J (there are J1 & J2), which, as per "Deep Ancestry" by Spencer Wells, is about 15,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent (Israel, the West Bank, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq. The SNP generally includes M304, M267 or M172. The same book indicates R1a is generally from the Balkans. During the Ice Age, this M170 spent their time in the Balkans and Iberia.

this is really interesting. So do I understand correctly that you have to be a direct decendant of a surname ie your father/mother had to be an Elliott for instance to be able to have correct DNA info done for that particular line? Meaning...my grandfather was an Elliott so it would be of no use for my brother to be tested for Elliott DNA? But he could get tested for the Hurst DNA which is our surname... vera Allen Elliott <[email protected]> wrote: These comments from The Elliott (And Border Reivers) DNA Project as well as subsequent research regarding Haplogroup 1Ra, are as best I know the potential where abouts of my ancestors. "Your haplogroup is pretty clearly I1a - which is a subset or "subclade" of the overall haplogroup I. Judging from the geographical distribution of your closest matches in both the Family Tree DNA database and the international Y chromosome database at www.yhrd.org, your ancestors could have been Angles, Normans or Vikings. There were unlikely to have been native Britons. There was a group of Elliotts from Cornwall who spelled their name "Eliot". They were apparently unrelated to the Scottish Elliotts, and legend has it that they were descended from a Norman knight named William de Aliot. Your DNA signature would have been a very respectable one for a Norman. I noticed the mention of Devon and Somerset, which are adjacent to Cornwall, where the Eliots reputedly originated. Your DNA results are pretty clearly I1a. I wouldn't bother getting SNP-tested through Family Tree DNA, as they would only be able to tell you that you belong the overall "I" haplogroup - and that is already very obvious. I1a in Southern England could have many sources. The largest group of the early Puritans came from East Anglia, which was settled mostly by Angles and, later, by Danes. Also many Flemish settled in East Anglia in the late middle ages. The Y-chromosome haplogroup compositions of East Anglia and Denmark are virtually identical. Then, of course, there is the theory of a Norman origin for the Eliots of Southwest England. Not all Normans were descended from Vikings, but many were, and your haplotype could easily be of Norwegian origin - not directly, but by way of Normandy. There are, in fact, many Scots of Viking descent as well. There were also many Vikings and half-Viking, half-Gaelic settlers in Northwest England and in Galloway - both areas near where the Scottish Elliotts originated. There are actually two other Elliotts in my group with I1a signatures. The closest to you is only a 9/12 match unfortunately. Both of these Elliotts are from England too, but at least one of them claims a fairly detailed pedigree leading back to Newcastleton in the Scottish Borders. The main reason why I suggested that your Elliotts might be of Southern English origin, beyond your DNA signature, is the fact that they settled in Massachusetts in the 1600's." Has any male of your Tree had their DNA tested? It would be very helpful in the research for Elliotts in England. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of COLIN ELLIOTT Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 11:03 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elliott] William Elliott born 1805 in athlone. - Scottish?

l am very interested in the message about the DNA , thank you, l am still trying to digest it. l have only been at the family History for only a few years and managed to get back to about 1700s in Amersham, Buckinghamshire, England. l have a long long way to go to reach the lines that you on this list are talking about l know, but l would love to understand it a little better. l am thrilled about the Southern Elliotts.... as everyone told me that l would find My Elliotts came from Scotland, and l would keep finding more and more Elliotts in Bucks, and Herts . lots more going back to 1500s purely specuation at the moment but my family has stayed in the area for centuries hopefully they stay ...... so l have not got far to go when researching this side of the family. again thank you for your interesting reading.

Tony and I, who are communicating on this thread, share a great great grandfather William Elliott born in Athlone in 1805. His children and grandchildren lived mainly in London through the 1800's with postings abroad as they were military people - Royal Artillery, Woolwich. William's father was also a William, who married Maria Moyce in Camberwell in 1803. It is this William's parents we are trying to find, with no success at present. There is a story in Tony's family that earlier Elliotts in the line were descended fron the Lords Minto in the Scottish borders, and we have some info. on some of the family moving to London - in particular a Gavin Elliott. However we cant find the link to William yet. Keep in touch, and give us as much info as you can, and I will look for a link when we get further. Regards Dennis.

I am watch this thread with great interest, ever since my DNA tests show my line coming from southern England such as East Anglia. That DNA test appears to have more to do with Nordic/Viking ancestors than with the Border Revivers of Scotland. My line begins with Daniel Elliott, whose son testified at the Salem Witch Trials. The "Holy Grail" of my Elliotts is to find out where in England, Daniel started his journey to New England. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Margaret Turner Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 05:18 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elliott] William Elliott born 1805 in athlone. - Scottish?
