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?
