I would like to invite all to share family conection through the Ledgers of Newfoundland Merchants, etc. Mr John Slade of Fogo CI, and Twillingate.The Slade ledgers have been a boon of information to me in my reserch on the Elliott Family.Serving to add Mystery to their exsistance, and to say the least adding flesh to the ancestral bones.

Speifically, the merchant used his ledgers (accounts) to convey financil transaction between himself as well as other accounts.If one john Elliott is shown paying L 01 /10 to john smith, then John smiths account would bear witness to it.Why was it paid,etc.

ELLIOTT contacts in the Slade Ledgers

This is a list of names that have appeared in the records of the Slade Ledgers , on the accounts of the Elliotts of Twillingate, Fogo andf Change Islands.And other Account names that have appeared on the same pages.It is not complete by any means.It is is important to read it as such..."Read John, appears in 1786 on the Slade account for John Read, as illiterate".For those who have not yet studied the accounts of the Slade Family, or any other merchant for that matter, you can get a wealth of information from this matterial.
