Chisholm Elliot

Looking for a connection between the names of Chisholm and Elliot. My two times great grandmother has the middle name Chisholm, last name Elliot, (Margaret Chisholme Elliot) born in 1821 at Gordon, Roxburgh

There are many queries on Rootschat with reference to second names of ancestors.

Sometimes it is an earlier family name passed down and other times not.

It could be a friends surname, employer etc.

My Louttid in a childs name (Elizabeth Louittid Leggett) comes from her Sisters Marriage to a Louttid.

You have to trace back generations sometimes to find a connection by Marriage or to rule one out.

Trish :)

EDIT I see by baptism she was born Gordon, Berwickshire

1813 marriage a possibility ??
Name   James Chisholm
Sex   Male
Spouse's Name   Mary Elliot
Spouse's Sex   Female
Event Type   Marriage
Event Date   5 Mar 1813
Event Place   Nenthorn, Berwickshire, Scotland, United Kingdom
Event Place (Original)   Nenthorn, Berwick, Scotland
the timing of the marriage fits an 1821 birth ?

Nenthorn to Roxburgh is 8 miles - so a likely match ???

Henry seems to be an only child, if Joseph is indeed his father and I do not see a marriage for Joseph on SP.
