My grandmother told me when I was a child that people would say her Elliotts were Scottish, but that was not true. They were from Sweden. I have talked with her three remaining children and no one knows anything about this. Could anyone shine any light on this.

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.
