  • Notes 

    • In a legal document dated 08 Dec 1659, he's listed as "Nicholas Eliot of St. Juliot, co. Cornwall, gentleman." The next mention that's come to light is another legal document dated 21 Sep 1689 - by which time Nicholas is listed as "late of St. Juliot, deceased."

      It seems likely that Nicholas would have been buried at St. Juliot, but burial records there do not survive before 1663 (by which time Nicholas and his wife may already have died).

      --- In January 1655/56, Nicholas and Katherine baptised their daughter, Susannah, at St. Martin on Looe, Cornwall. The only other Eliot mentioned in those registers is a burial record on 02 Jul 1658 for Tamysin Eliot (possibly another child of Nicholas and Katherine).
