George Elliott (surgeon)
George Elliott ( 1636 – 1668 in Tangier)PRO – Tangier Garrison records was the English surgeon to the Earl of Teviot's Regiment. Elliott was the illegitimate son of Catherine Killigrew (1618–1689) and Richard Eliot ( 1614-1660s), the wayward second son of Sir John Eliot. George Elliott's grandson Granville Elliott spent much effort in seeking to prove that Richard had married Catherine Killigrew, but he was never able to do so formally. Indeed, visitations survive showing that Richard died a bachelor and her mother's probate documents showing that Catherine was a spinster, aged 38, on 24 December 1656. Little is known of Elliott's early years until his marriage to Katherine Maxwell in 1654. By 4 May 1663, around the time of the baptism of his second daughter in London, he was recognized as 'Doctor' to the Earl of Teviot's Regiment. He reappeared at the Tangier Garrison in Morocco in May 1664 as the 'Chirurgeon to the Earl of Teviot's Regiment at Tangier', where he liv ...

George Elliott (British Politician)
Sir George Samuel Elliott (1847 – 4 May 1925) was a British businessman and politician. Born in Islington, he was educated at the City of London School and entered business as a refreshment contractor with premises at Upper Street. In 1875, he was elected to Islington Vestry. He subsequently became a member of the Islington Board of Guardians: during his 38 years membership he was chairman for 20 years and vice-chairman for 9. When the first elections to the London County Council were held in January 1889, Elliott was elected as one of two councillors representing Islington South.

He was later described as an "Independent Progressive", and at the 1901 elect ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
