Is there anyone out there who has a list of the children of the 3rd Sir Gilbert ELLIOT (1722- 1777) of Minto, Roxburgh, Scotland? I also need the name of his wife. He sat as a member of Parliament for Selkirk and then Roxburghshire. The list of children is the missing link between several generations in America and Scotland. I am especially interested in a daughter, Agnes, who may have married a Robert Thompson. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Darlene Miller
