  Marriage	Abt 1745  [8]
  	According to Whitelaw, in 1754 Thomas Elliott, son of Robert, and his wife Elizabeth sold land to Joseph Jefferies. (NOTE: Whitelaw was evidently assuming that Robert Elliott had a son Thomas, as the deeds themselves do not show Thomas as a son of Robert. They only show Thomas with a wife Elizabeth, has she signs over her dower rights when Thomas sells the land. Robert Elliott did not name a son Thomas in his will, but instead named only "Wife Mary Elliott sole legatee & Exec.")
