Joseph Elliott Jr (or Major/Captain) is my maternal 6GG. I have dna tests through FTDNA and Ancestry. I would like to connect with others that share him. I'm very interested to find evidence if his 1st wife Susanna Carlton is of the famous Carlton family of Massachusetts and the Strickland family that are descended from the Plantagenets.

Elliott-4676 and Elliot-318 appear to represent the same person because: Clearly intended to be the same person. LNAB should be Elliot.

My husband's ancestor (Ziba Whiting, Rutland, MA) served in Joseph Elliot's Company, William Turner's Regiment in 1781 at Butts Hill, Rhode Island.

Elliott-6456 and Elliot-318 appear to represent the same person because: parents' and grandparents' profiles use the spelling Elliot, although both spellings appear in public records for the same people and their siblings. The previous conflicts in identity of grandparents have been removed in merge in accordance with the public birth record.
