But I saw a lot of activity on the boards lately (as sent to me via emails), so.... Arless wrote: <<I also have ELLIOTTs in Buchanan County--John and Eupha SMITH ELLIOTT--also came from Kentucky. Their daughter Sarah married Elijah COMMINS. Their daughter, Elvina COMMINS married Lemuel WATKINS--my great grandparents. Do we connect>> I have such meager data, but here is what I have: William R. ELLIOTT, born around 1860s or 1870s. Married a Della Hines. William R. Elliott's siblings were: John Paul George(?) Lacretia Sophia (?) Della and WR Elliott's children were: Lloyd Maude B. Myrtle Sylvester I trace my ancestry through Maude B. Elliott. Maude B. Elliott (daughter of Willam R. Elliott and Della Hines) married Thomas G. Cordry, and are listed as living in Washington Township, Buchanan County, Missouri in the 1920 Census. Their children are: Lenis, Myrtle, Marion T., Ada Frances, Howard E. and Dale Maude B. Elliott was born in 1896 and Thomas G. Cordry was born in 1892. I'm pretty sure the Census says Maude Elliott came from Iowa. Any intersections with anybody?? Happy New Year - Marian Cordry
