(IV) Harry Alton Moody, M. D., fifth child and second son of Atwell A. and Mary Edna (Nash) Moody, was born in Waldoboro, Maine, November 9, 1877. He obtained his literary education in the common and high schools of Warner, Maine, and at Lincoln Academy. In 1897 he became a student in Bowdoin College, and in 1903 graduated from its medical department .. He began practice at Green- ville, Maine, in 1903, and remained there until 1905, when he settled in Sanbornville, New Hampshire. There his upright character and professional ability have made him an esteemed citizen and a prosperous physician. He is a member of Syracuse Lodge, No. 27. Knights of Pythias, of Sanbornville, and of Lovell Union Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, of Sanbornville. May 29, 1898, he married in Dover, New Hampshire, Mildred Frances Libby, who was born in Saco, Maine, May 27, 1881, daughter of Adin and Clara (Foote) Libby, of Saco, Maine (see Libby, IX).
This name spelled Eliot, Elliot, and ELLIOTT Elliott, appears in the early records of Massachusetts and was borne by many persons in Colonial times. With slight and inconsequential changes in spelling, there were four Elliott families in early New England, namely : Rev. John Eliot, the famous apostle to the Indians, of Roxbury; Ebenezer, of Newton; Edmund, of Amesbury ; and Andrew, of Beverly. (Mention of Andrew and descendants forms a part of this article. )
(I) Edmund Elliott was a husbandman or planter of Amesbury, Massachusetts, where his name was frequently mentioned in the records. He was born about 1629, probably in England, and is first found on record among those taxed in Amesbury in 1652. He received land in Salisbury in a division, in 1654, and in Amesbury, in 1659-62-66-68. He subscribed to the oath of allegiance in Amesbury, 1677, and was on record as a resident there in 1680. He died about 1683. His will was executed Febru- ary 26, 1675, and proved March 17, 1684. He must have served in the Indian war after making his will as it is on record that he executed this will, "When he was going to the war." In case of the death of his wife and son, his property was to go to his nearest relatives in England. The inventory of his estate, made January 2, 1684, shows that it was valued at more than four hundred and eighty pounds. His wife Sarah Haddon was a daughter of Jarrat, or (Jared) and Margaret Haddon, of Amesbury. She was born January 15, 1640, in Salisbury, and after the death of Mr. Elliott and before September. 1685, she married a "young love," and was still living in 1687, as shown by her father's will.
(II) John, only child of Edmund and Sarah (Haddon) Elliott, was born September 25, 1660, in Salisbury. He is described as a yeoman of that town, and took the oath of allegiance in 1677. In 1680 he was a member of the "Training Band." His will was made February 25, and proven on the 19th of the following March, 1733. He was mar- ried about 1685 to Naomi Tuxbury. She was born January 18, 1667, in Newbury, and was about eight- cen years old at the time of her marriage. Her mention in his will indicates that she survived her husband. Their children were : Edmund, Sarah, Elizabeth, John, Thomas, Mary, Hannah, David and Naomi. (David and descendants are noticed in this article. )
(11I) Edmund (2), eldest child of John and Naomi (Tuxbury) Elliott, was born July 30, 1686, in Amesbury, in which town he resided. Thomas Hoyt was appointed as administrator of his estate, April 16, 1733, which would indicate that Elliott was not then living. He was married January 8, 1713, to W. Huntington, daughter of John and Elizabeth ( Blaisdell ) Huntington, of Amesbury, and granddaughter of William Huntington, a pioneer planter of Salisbury. She was born September 22, 1687 in Amesbury. Their children were: Sarah, Deborah, Hannah, Betty, Edmund and Jonathan, the last two born between 1715 and 1722.
(IV) Edmund (3), elder son and fifth child of Edmund (2) and W. (Huntington ) Elliott, was born between 1715 and 1722 in Amesbury, Massa- chusetts, and became a pioneer settler of Chester, New Hampshire. In 1747 he purchased home lot No. 31 in that town and subsequently became the owner of lot No. 134. He continued to reside there until his death, which occurred October 8, 1789. He married Mehitabel Worthen, who survived him more than sixteen years and died April 11, 1806. Their children were : Jonathan, Elizabeth, Me-

hitabel, Jacob, Sarah, John, Ephraim, Edmond, Ezekiel and Nathaniel.
(V) Nathaniel, youngest child of Edmund (3) and Mehitabel (Worthen) Elliott, was born 1764, in Chester, and settled in the town of Thornton, New Hampshire, where he was a pioneer resi- dent.
(VI) Joseph, son of Nathaniel Elliott, was born November 1I, 1792, in Thornton, and early settled in the town of Pittsfield, where he died October 2, 1850, aged fifty-eight years. He was a farmer by occupation and was a respected citizen. He married Betsy Seavey, who was born July 5, 1796, and died December 6, 1872, in her seventy-seventh year. She was the fourth daughter and child of Isaac Seavey who was called Governor Seavey because of his long association with Governor Went- worth. He was first called the governor's Isaac to distinguish him from others of the same name and this in time was shortened to Governor Seavey ( see Seavey, V). He is said to have been a soldier in the Revolutionary army, and was captured and kept a prisoner by the British. He moved to Pittsfield in the early part of the nineteenth century and settled in the extreme southeastern part of the town, which was then a wilderness, and there ac- quired several pieces of land, among which is the one now occupied by his grandson Philester S. Elliott. In the time of Governor Seavey the pres- ence of the Free Will Baptist Church and a school house made his locality the most important part of the town. Betsey (Seavey) Elliott was a very competent housekeeper, and noted for her skill in spinning and weaving. Specimens of clothing spun and woven by her are now in the possession of P. S. Elliott. She had one of the first cook stoves introduced into the neighborhood. The children of Joseph and Betsey
( Seavey) Elliott were : Gardner, Catherine, Cassandra, Hiram, Harrison, Joseph, Arthur, Simon G .. Mary A., George H., Martha A. and Philester S. Gardner was a car- penter by trade and went to California in 1849, and lived there the remainder of his life. Catherine imarried Samuel Gerrish, lived in Madbury, New Hampshire, and died February 27, 1899, aged eighty-
three. Cassandra died October 12, 1839, aged twenty. Hiram died August 15, 1850, at the age of thirty. Harrison died July 6, 1872, aged fifty years. Joseph died June 15, 1854, aged thirty years. Arthur died February, 1890, aged sixty-four. Simon G. died in 1897, aged sixty-nine. Mary A. married Ezra L. Greenleaf, and died December 19, 1862, aged thirty-two. George H. died in 1838, aged six. Martha A. died in 1854, aged eighteen.
(VII) Philester Sperry, twelfth and youngest child of Joseph and Betsey ( Seavey) Elliott, was born in Pittsfield, May 1, 1839. He grew up on a farm, and was educated in the common schools and at Pittsfield Academy, where he attended four terms. Early in life he learned the trade of shoe- maker, at which he worked fifteen years. During his whole life he has been actively interested in agriculture, but has for short preods engaged in other industries. At various times and places he has been engaged in superintending the construction of stone dams, sewers and waterworks. He also had charge of dynamiting and excavating rock on the site of the Pittsfield cotton mill during repairs in1 1883. He has taken an active part in public af- fairs and politics, and served as chairman of the board of selectmen in 1889-90, and was again a mem- ber of the board in 1894-95. In politics he is a devotee of Democracy and has been his party's delegate to county, congressional and state conven-
tions. He enlisted in 1861 in Company G., Fifteenth New Hampshire Volunteer Infantry, and served in the Department of the Gulf, being discharged Au- gust 15, 1863. He took part in the siege of Port Hudson, Louisiana. He has a handsome farm which is well cultivated and productive, on which he has erected a handsome set of buildings supplied with modern conveniences which is an attractive resort for summer tourists and boarders. Mr. Elliott is a man of probity, and is highly respected. Although he did not enjoy in youth a full measure of educational advantages that many have, he has made up by careful study and research what he then missed, and is one of the thoughtful and well in- formed men of his town.
He married, June 6, 1860, in Concord, Lucinda J. Watson, who was born in Pittsfield, May 6, 1838, eldest child of William and Maria J. (Davis) Wat- son, and granddaughter of Stephen Watson. Wil- liam Watson was born in Pittsfield, New Hamp- shire, May 5, 1813. and died December 29, 1870. His wife was born December 24, 1811, in Nottingham, and died January 27, 1882. To Philester S. and Lucinda J. (Watson) Elliott three children have been born, John W., Nellie J., Frank L. John W. married Hattie B. Pike, and is now engaged is the grocery business at Manchester. Nellie J. is unmarried and lives at home. Frank L. is manager of Swift & Company's at North Adams, Massachu- setts. He married Alice Welsh, of Portland, Maine.
(III) David, fourth son and eighth child of John and Naomi (Tuxbury) Elliot, was born July 12, 1705, in Amesbury, and lived in what is now Newton, New Hampshire. The records of the sec- ond Amesbury church show the birth of four of his children, namely: David (died young), Naomi, Joseph and Benjamin. The name of his wife does not appear, and it is probable that they were living in Newton when these records were made, from 1749 to 1753. Nothing appears in the vital records of New Hampshire to show that other chil- dren were either previously or subsequently born.
(IV) Joseph, apparently eldest son of David Elliot, was born August 6, 1749, and became an early resident of Concord, New Hampshire, settling there February 19, 1778. He resided in a log house in. what was called the Borough, now West Con- cord. His wife was Lydia Goodwin, and their chil- dren were: Sally, Polly, David, Joseph, Frederick, Jacob, Samuel, Benjamin, Judith, Eleanor and Lydia.
(V) Samuel, fifth son and seventh child of Joseph and Lydia (Goodwin) Elliot, was born January 30, 1753, and reared for a time in Concord, and subseuently settled in London, New Hampshire. He was married September 2, 1804, to Eunice Sar- gent, by the Rev. Joel Tucker. Their children were : Mary, Josiah, Lydia, Joseph. Hiram and Eunice.
(VI) Dr. John Sargent Elliot, eldest son and second child of Samuel and Eunice (Sargent) Elliot, was born July 26, 1806, in Loudon, and subsequently resided in Pittsfield. Unless there is an error in the vital records, he must have changed his name from Josiah to John. He was for many years a successful physician and was able to provide well for his family. He was married, January 31, 1833. in Pittsfield, to Mrs. Asenath (Bean) Ranlet, and both were then described as of Pittsfield. The Rev. John K. Young performed the ceremony.
(VII) George Francis, second son of Dr. John S. and Asenath (Bean) Elliot, was born in Pitts- field, July 14, 1844, and died in Manchester, October 6, 1905, aged sixty-one years. In November follow-

ing his birth his father's family removed to Man- chester, which was ever afterward his home. He was educated in the schools of Manchester, attend- ing the North grammar school and the old high school. As a boy at one time he sold newspapers and peddled the Mirror. In after life he often alluded to the fact that his father, although an "Old Hunker Democrat," always subscribed for the Mirror. After leaving school he began the study of medicine with his father, but abandoned this to give liis attention to business pursuits. For years he was a railroad employe, assisting in running an engine on the Portsmouth road. During his early life he conducted a large farm in Bedford for his father for a time, and his knowledge of real estate for which he was later well known was largely gained from practical experience. He had a very handsome property bequeathed to him both outright and in trust by his father, and at the time of his death he was among the heaviest individual taxpay- ers of the city. During the last years of his life he devoted himself wholly to the care of his ex- tensive property. He inherited his father's sagacity about money matters, and his judgment was good in this direction. He was cool and conservative in his business judgment, and his advice was sought by many in regard to investments and on real estate matters. For years he was a trustee of the Peoples Savings Bank.
Mr. Elliot passed his lifetime in Manchester and was well known there. Having plenty of leisure and means he sought the companionship of his friends and acquaintances. He liked to talk, and was a good listener. He was well informed and con- versed easily and intertainingly. He read a great deal, and his memory was remarkably retentive. He was fond of saying "I never forget anything." His travels had been extensive, both at home and abroad, and he could recount his experiences so as to make them very entertaining. He was en- thusiastic concerning things which appealed to him. He was a man who tried to avoid friction, and moved among people without incurring jealousy or enmity or stirring up strife, and usually "got along well with folks." Concerning the history of Manchester he had extensive knowledge, and had at his tongue's end important facts about the city, and took a pleasure in telling them and recalling the old days.
He belonged to several social organizations, and his affiliations with secret societies were many. He was one of the earliest members of the Amoskeag Veterans. The association was formed in his father's office, and as soon as he was old enough he became a member and always maintained a deep interest in the battalion. He had held the rank of first lieutenant. He was a member of the Man- chester Veteran Fireman's Association, the Man- chester Historical Association, and the Manchester Old Resident's Association. He was a thirty-sec- ond degree Mason, being a member of Washington Lodge, No. 61, Mt. Horeb Royal Arch Chapter, No. II, Adoniram Council, No. 3, Royal and Select Masters ; and Trinity Commandery, Knights Temp- lar, of Manchester; and Edward A. Raymond Con- sistory, No. 32. Sublime Princes of the Royal Secret, of Nashua. He was also a member of Manchester Lodge of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. As a fireman, an Amoskeag Veteran, a Ma- son, an Elk, to an unusual extent he was zealous and could always be depended upon to contribute work and money. He usually participated in the outings indulged in by the organizations to which he belonged. In politics he was a Republican, hav-
ing departed from the example of his father, who was a staunch Democrat. Mr. Elliot and his family always resided on Bridge street, and for twenty- seven years they occupied the Dr. Elliot residence. He was stricken with paralysis while attending a meeting of the Scottish Rite Masons at Nashua in April, 1905, from which he partially recovered, and was able to be out and about town; but on July Ioth he experienced a second stroke and his deatlı resulted on the following October 6th.
He married, November 7, 1868, in Manchester, Lucina M. Blake, who was born in Lunenburg, Vermont, who survives him. She is the daughter of Thomas and Lucy Blake of Danville, Vermont. Five children were born of this marriage, three of whom survive.

(Blake) Elliot, was born in Man- chester, May 26, 1875, and attended the common schools of his native city, Phillips Academy and Harvard Medical School. He graduated from the latter in 1896. He was connected with the Iron and Steel Works of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and the Duncan Locomotive works, and is now manager of Hapgoods of New York City.

He was town clerk of Beverly, and represented the town many years in the general court. He was one of the jurors at the witchcraft trials, which fact was a source of much mental anxiety to him in later years, and was one of the signers of the document of regret. He died in Beverly, March 1, 1704. He was mar- ried April 23, 1649, to Grace Wodier, who died February 8, 1652. He was married ( second),

February 2, 1654, to Mary Vivian. Some authori- ties relate that he had only one son, his namesake. This is probably true of his first marriage, but there were evidently children of the second mar- riage, because the family is continued in Beverly through names not of record, as among his chil- dren.

The name of Elliott, or Eliot, was ELLIOTT evidently brought into England from France by a distinguished soldier in the Conqueror's army named Aliot. Branches of the family became distributed throughout England, and on the Scottish border, and the river Eliot, or Elot, is said to have derived its name from one of these branches. The families in Devonshire and Cornwall generally spell their name Eliot, while
those in Scotland use the double letters. The first of the name in America was the Rev. John Eliot, the distinguished missionary among the aboriginal inhabitants of Massachusetts, who translated the scriptures into their language.
