I have a Robert Elliott, only information is born abt 1826 in Notts and his Father was Robert and Mother was Mary, Would some-one please have a look in 1841 and/or 1851 to see if you can locate him for me. |

Is there anything else you know about this man at all?? You can't have just come up with his name from nowhere? |

Sorry I pressed wrong button and lost the info I gave, Robert born c 1826 is Father of Albert Elliott born at 1873 Leicester. |

That looks interesting Astra, I don't suppose there is anyway of proving it though as I don't know that much. Are they showing up at all on census?? |

This looks like them in 1841. Robert Junior is already in Leicestershire by this stage. |

I think this is the wrong family as it is a different marriage. This is definitely the Robert Elliott who married Elizabeth Brown in 1866. They had an Albert born in 1873. |

We must have crossed messages. Gosh my head's in a whirl now, I'll have to check this one out and see where I got the marriage to Elizabeth Thompson from x |

There is a marriage in 1867 to Elizabeth Thompson in Ashby but I think it is a different couple. |

I think that Robert was previously married to a Jane which accounts for the older children |

this means that he is not the one born in East Leake because he appears in the same 1851 census as Robert and Jane. Unless he was entered as being at work as well as at home. It has been known to happen but he is noted as unmarried so I don't think it can be. |
