      ELIOT is the diminutive of Elye or Elias, the -et and -ot endings having been introduced by the Normans. The name was often spelled Aliot. The Norman knight, William de Aliot, who came to England with William the Conqueror in 1066 is the accredited ancestor of Lord Heathfield, the Earls of Minto and St. Germans, and Sir William Francis Eliot of Stobe, Baronet. The first seat of the family was in Devon, earliest records indicating that they were of the gentry, people of good family and social position.

      Bennett Eliot resided in Nazeing, co. Essex, England, from 1606 until his death, and was buried there Nov. 21, 1621, leaving a substantial estate. His will was executed Nov. 5, 1621, prob. March 28, 1628. It is believed that he was a descendant of the Eliots of Cornwall (including the Earls of St. Germans). Before 1606 he lived at Widford, county Hertford, where he married Letitia "Letteye" Aggar Oct. 30, 1598, in the Church of St. John the Baptist. She was buried March 16, 1620. All of their children settled in the New World.
