There is a Shadrack and Robeson Elliott there that may have a relationship to my Elias Elliott. He was a carpenter, married in 1842 to Sarah,a daughter of Solomon and Amelia Sparkman Stone possibly of Perquimans and Bertie Co. N. C., prior to Preble Co. OH. Elias died December 1844, after the birth of my Grt. Grt. Grandfather William Clinton Elliott January of the same year. The estate record of Elias includes a Joseph, Nathaniel, and Jesse Elliott. I assume Jesse is the father of Nathaniel, since he is found living with him later at the age of 78. Also in Preble, are a Chalkly(various spellings on census)and Lavina(maybe Robeson?)Elliott. I'm looking for anything that may help me to identify the parents of Elias. Thank-you. Lorrie Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
