    1. Re: [Elliott] Gaps in Elliott Migration Paths

    3. It would also help if more joined Elliott DNA groups to better track. For instance, I had been spending my time researching my New England line back to the Scotland/England border, only to have my DNA tests indicate otherwise. It seems my line is from Southern England by way the Viking raids along the coast. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of V Hurst Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2007 4:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elliott] Gaps in Elliott Migration Paths Good thought Paul..and I agree I have felt for a long time especially that Elliotts from Northern Ireland came over and at least initially joined family members or neighbors or someone they knew...is this incorrect thinking? so I guess maybe people who have Elliotts from Ireland should get together, English Elliotts etc and try to look at early naming patterns etc?

This involves studying the migration paths that many made westward from PA to Indiana, Missouri, etc. One problem is that some Elliott's from PA first settled in Augusta, VA, and then they (or their family) migrated on over to NC before moving south to SC and then on to Ohio, Indiana, Mo, etc. If we are researching an ancestor who settled in a known area of the country we may feel fairly certain that they came from a certain place, say Augusta, VA, but not suspect that they first had taken a loop through the Carolinas which is another cell of hung-up researchers. So, in our establishing continuity with our lines we tend to be ignorant of these cells and thus tend to by-pass these side paths. My example of this is: The censuses say that my Jacob Elliott was born in KY but I really suspect that he was born on Fishing Creek Chester Co., SC. But, none of the KY Elliott's mention SC or NC but indicate that they came from, say PA or Augusta, VA. I realize that it was customary for the children to move-on, seeking their own land. I also realize that there were some in Ohio, IN, MO, and else where, whose ancestors followed more direct paths than mine probably did. Does anyone else have any thoughts on how we can work together to tie some of these people together ?
