A file in Ancestry.com in 2013 offers: "Hon. Robert Eliot was born in 1643 and is first mentioned 13 Jan. 1660. In 1662 he was appointed Constable for Strawberry Bank. He lived in Portsmouth, now Newcastle, N. H., Scarborough, Me., and on Gerrish's Island in his last days. Was selectman in Portsmouth in 1679 and 1680, and in Scarborough in 1682 and town's Deputy to General Court in 1685. In 1692 he was appointed one of the Councillors of New Hampshire and held that office with the exception of one year till 1715. Timothy Gerrish recorded in his family Bible: 'My father-in-law, Robert Eliot, Dyed in 82 year of his age in March 24th 1724.'
A court record, dated 29 May 1683, speaks of 'Robert Eliot, who married the relict and administratrix of Ric. Young of Cape Porpus.' He and wife Margery deeded land, 13 June 1687, to son-in-law, Emanuel Davis, and Mary his wife. This Mary was probably daughter of Richard and Margery (Batson) Young. In a Bill of Sale, dated 7 June 1692, Robert Eliot names "my wife whose maiden name was Margery Batson." She was daughter of Stephen Batson of Cape Porpoise, whose will names daughter Margery Young.
Robert Eliot and wife Sarah signed a deed 10 May 1702 and again in 1707. This wife was Sarah, daughter of Hon. Nathaniel Fryer of Newcastle, N. H., and was born in Boston 20 July 1656.
It is evident that there were no children by the last marriage, neither could all of his children have been born of Margery. There was an earlier marriage, and his will gives the clue as to who his first wife was. It names as one of the executors 'my loving Broth'- WillTM1 Pepperrell Senr.' His first wife, then, was a sister of Col. William Pepperrell. Children were:
Humphrey m. about 1685, Elizabeth, dan. of Robert Cutt and moved to South Carolina. No positive proof has been found that Humphrey was the son of Robert Eliot, but circumstantial evidence points to that conclusion.
Robert, received deed of land from his father in 1705 and prob. d. umn. before 1709.
Nathan1el, witness of deeds in 1698. Cf. p. 72.
El1zabeth m. Col. George Vaughan before 1702. (See York Deeds, VII. 117.)
Sarah b. 1 Oct. 1687; m. Col. Timothy Gerrish 14 Nov. 1706.
Jane b. 1684; m. (1) 1707 Andrew Pepperrell, (2) 25 Nov. 1714, Lieut. Charles Frost.
Ab1ga1l m. Capt. Daniel Greenough of Newcastle, N. H., 16 Dec. 1708.
These four daughters are the only children named in his will, 1718. There may have been an earlier daughter Sarah, who witnessed a deed in 1685 and probably died soon after. See Coll. of N. H. Hist. Society Vol. VIII. p. 356, and Coll. of Me. Hist. Society, Vol. III. p. 210.
