Pte. George "Douglas" Elliott
British Army 10th (Stockbrokers) Btn. Royal Fusiliers
from:Islington
(d.9th Oct 1918)
My great grandfather George Elliott, also known as Douglas was with the 10th Battalion, Royal Fusiliers. He died during the war and is buried in the Beaulencourt British Cemetery Ligny-Thilloy, France.
He was married in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada to Irene Vincent while stationed there. He moved her to England where they had 4 children. My grandmother was the 4th child, Irene Elliott. Upon his death, my great grandmother and her 4 children moved back to Canada settling in Newfoundland around Woody Pointe. My great grandmother married a Mr Cultler and went on to have 10 more children.
I am so very interested in the Elliott side of my family. No one ever kept in touch with the Elliotts from England.
