Hi Jenifer,

      Many thanks for that. Sadly I don't think it's my lot.

I have a large database for the Egglestons of Hunstanworth, which is
adjacent to Edmonbyers.  RBE:

I am a novice at this type of reply, but----. I have no direct knowledge of
Elliot but there was a John Eggleston who married Elizabeth Elliot in 1763 in Edmondbyers.  At this time there was a large Eggleston family in Stanhope, which is not far over the moors. John and Elizabeth had four other children christened in Edmondbyers.  Elliot Eggleston and Ann Walton had a child in Edmondbyers in 1792, with subsequent children
christened in Stanhope in 1803 and 1806.  What is your Eggleston
connection?

Thanks again for that. John and Elizabeth are I think my 6x g.grand parents.

Do you have any living cousins named Eggleston (descendants of John and Elizabeth)?

[moraf]

Yes I do
