Hello - My name is Paul Sheldon Elliott.  I have been working on my family tree and family history since 1999.  This site is dedicated to my mom & dad, and to the legacy that they and their families have left behind.  The site is also an avenue to provide family information to others who may be in the same family line.  It is also my hope that the information here will allow others to assist  me with some of the  roadblocks that I have come across over the years. 

(If you have any trouble navigating, please email me.  I've noted that some of the photo pages may have to be reloaded on initial viewing.  I've also noted that some of the links in the Family Tree section do not work as expected.) 

I was born and raised in the beautiful state of Tennessee; the place that will always be known as "home" in my heart.  My mother, father and their parents were all from western and mid-northern Kentucky.  My sister and I grew up in eastern and middle Tennessee.

I currently live in Lancaster, California; an area also known as the Antelope Valley.  I came to southern California in 1985 by way of the U. S. Air Force to Edwards Air Force Base.  Shortly after returning from Desert Storm in 1991, I was discharged from the service and began working for Northrop Grumman Corporation as an Avionics Test Engineer for the B-2 Stealth Bomber program.  In 1997, I began working for Lockheed Martin Corporation.

I attend Central Christian Church here in Lancaster.  Central is a continuously growing and wonderful Bible based church that shares God's love and helps to make Him known throughout our community and surrounding areas.  I have made some very good friends and met some very wonderful people here.

If you have pictures of any of the people mentioned throughout this site, I would be interested in obtaining copies if possible.  The majority of my family (back to my great grandparents) originated in either Hancock Co. or Daviess Co. Kentucky.  Some family members came from Fulton Co., Kentucky.   From there, known lines extend to Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Ohio - the search goes on.

My biggest roadblock is my own surname - ELLIOTT.  I have not been able to get past my great-grandfather, Albert E. Elliott, since first beginning my research.  Finding his parents and siblings is quite the mystery.
