Eliott Baronets

The Baronetcy of Eliott of Stobs was created by King Charles II of England on December 3 1666 as part of the Baronetage of Nova Scotia. The Baronets (Eliott) share a common early Ellot ancestry with the nearby Earls of Minto (Elliot). It is thought that the surname spelling differences were contrived to differentiate the branches. There is an excellent genealogical book which includes this family - The Elliots: The Story of A Border Clan by The Dowager Lady Eliott of Stobbs and Sir Arthur Eliott, 11th Baronet, published in hardback (ISBN 0-85422-081-X) and later reprinted in soft cover.
