Aaron and Lydia (Taylor) Elliot married in Sutton, 13-Oct-1767 (based on entries in the Vital Records of Sutton to 1850). After Lydia's passing in 1825, elderly Dea. Aaron married widow Susanna (Davis) Carriel.

In 2021, related to the Sutton Historical Society sponsored restoration project, the remainder of a very weather-worn gravestone in Plot 5 of Section B was identified as the gravestone of Dea. Aaron Elliott. His name is barely readable. However, the date of death and age match the information in the 1905 compilation of gravestone inscriptions done by Henry C. Batcheller, Sutton Town Clerk (information used to supplement the death records in the Vital Records of Sutton to 1850, which were published in 1907).


The lower portion of the above ground section of this tablet style gravestone may have been inscribed for his wife Lydia [Taylor] and their daughter Lucy (there appears to be the outline of a second name box at the bottom of the remaining piece). That portion was not found by excavating directly beneath the surviving piece.


There is also the original footstone with initials of all three. Both stones where reset where found. Based on the position of the footstone, it is possible that there was a second gravestone for Lydia and Lucy (or, perhaps, just for Lucy) to the left of Deacon Aaron's.

Please add Dr Fuller Elliott as a son of Aaron & Lydia Elliott.

Fuller Elliott moved to Meigs County, Ohio with his brother Simeon Elliott
