I do not know who the parents of John W. Elliott are. I do show that John W. Elliott married Elizabeth Agee about 1818 but the county of marriage is unknown. I have Elizabeth Agee as the first wife of John W. Elliott. I have three son's issued during this first marriage. James J. Elliott, Sr. born about 1819 per the 1850 census of Keiths Dist. of Lumpkin Co., GA., then Isaac J. Elliott born Dec. 24, 1820 per both the 1850 census of Keiths Dist. of Lumpkin Co., Ga where he is listed as A. J. Elliott and per his gravestone at Crossroads Bapt. Ch. Cem. which shows his date of death as May 28, 1899 and his age at death as 76 years, 9 months, and 1 day old, then last was Reuben T. Elliott born about 1822. The second wife of John W. Elliott was Sarah Skaggs and they were married about 1823. Again the county of marriage is unknown. Since Lumpkin Co., Ga. was not created until 1832 and was under the control of either Hall or Habershame County until 1838, I suspect that the County of Marriage was not Lumpkin Co., GA., but I may be wrong if you have documentation that they were married in Lumpkin Co., Ga. October 30, 1814. I would be interested in knowing where you obtained this date of marriage. The information that I have about John W. Elliott is undocumented information. I have never found him and Elizabeth Agee listed in any census records. I have just been following the lead of other researchers who have claimed that this couple was from Lumpkin Co., GA. and I know that the three men that I have mentioned above were all from the Lumpkin-Dawson Co., GA area near what is today the Forsyth Co., Ga. and Dawson Co., Ga. line.
