I am looking for Elliotts in the St. Catharines, Ontario area. My grandmother's brother, James George Elliott arrived from Ireland in 1913. He was called George. He married and had two children: Howard and Audrey. I had heard that he was a car salesman. That is about all I know. If anyone has a connection, please let me know. - Jane Dixon Anderson [email protected] >From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected], [email protected] >To: <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: [Elliott] ELLIOTT in Ontario, Canada >Date: Sat, 03 Mar 2007 16:40:21 -0000 > >This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > >Author: Liv2sail2 >Surnames: >Classification: queries > >Message Board URL: > >http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.elliott/3394.1.1.1.1.1.1.1/mb.ashx > >Message Board Post: > >Here's what I wrote in June 2002: > > >I have Elliott's from the London, Ontario area: > >Robert H.
