Kind(er):
REMARKS: Florence Belle Elliott, "Florence", was born on July 14, 1895,
on
her father's farm in Cleveland County, North Carolina, the daughter of
Thomas
Forbis Elliott, "Tommy", and Rebecca Bell Hoyle Elliott, "Bell". She was
the
ninth of their eleven children, who were born in the following order:
Susan
Ola, "Susan"; Sarah Tressia, "Sally"; Mary Forbis, "Mary"; Margaret
Gordon,
"Mag"; Julia Ann, "Julia"; Alice Hoyle, "Alice"; John Paxton, "John";
William
Christopher, "William"; Florence Belle, "Florence"; Virginia Wells,
"Ginny";
and Rebecca Belle, "Belle".
On January 17, 1904, Florence's mother died after giving birth to Belle.
In 1908, four years after her mother's death, her father married Carrie
Alma, "Carrie", Withrow. Florence had a half-brother, Valentine Jason
Elliott,
"Val", from her father's second marriage.
On February 15, 1917, Florence married William Judson, "Judd", Jones,
brother of
Joseph Robert, "Bob", Jones, who married Florence's sister Alice. Judd
and Bob
Jones were sons of Donald William Jones and Mary Ann Magness. Florence
and
Judd had four children, who were born in the following order: Louise
Magness,
"Louise"; Anabeth Hoyle, "Ann"; William Judson, "Bill"; and Thomas
Reinhardt,
"Tom", Jones. Judd was a businessman. Florence also operated an antique
business. They lived in Shelby, North Carolina.
Florence grew up on her father's farm, which was in Number 8 township,
near
Polkville, about 12 miles northwest of Shelby, the county seat. She had
many
relatives in the area, including the descendants of Martin Elliott, who
fought
in the Revolution and moved to North Carolina from Virginia in 1806, and
his
son, John Crenshaw Elliott, Florence's great grandfather, who purchased
1300
acres on Hinton's Creek in 1809, in what was then Rutherford County.
After John
Crenshaw Elliott died, his wife deeded the community an acre for the
school and
an acre for the church.
John Crenshaw had six sons: William Martin, John Paxton, Thomas F., Edward
Donoho, Andrew Jackson, and James Finch Elliott; and four daughters:
Susan,
Elizabeth Donoho, Nancy, and Mary F. Elliott. Florence was descended
from John
Paxton Elliott, who had six sons: Christopher Beam, Thomas Forbis, Oliver
Beam, John Daniel, Andrew Jackson, and Robert Lafayette; and four
daughters:
Mary Donoho, Margaret Gordon, Ann Elizabeth, and Susan Elliott.
John Crenshaw and many of his descendants are buried in the Elliott family
cemetery near Polkville. The descendants of John Crenshaw Elliott have a
family reuntion at the Elliott Church near Polkville on the Saturday
preceding
the fourth Sunday in August. The family historian posts the family trees
on
the side of the church; and the cousins share a potluck lunch; discuss
family
business, including the operation of the Elliott cemetery and maintenance
of
the Elliott Church; renew family ties; and refer to the family trees to
trace
their relationships with newcomersd. It is a great heritage.
Original data from John Paxton Elliott family tree prepared by Mary Gordon

MUCH OF THIS RESEARCH IS FROM MERGED RECORDS.
TO INSURE ACCURACY YOU WILL NEED TO VERIFY THE DATA BUT YOU WILL KNOW WHERE TO START. I HOPE IT IS OF SOME HELP.
