Calvin B. Elliott was born April 29, 1826, in Centreville, Wayne Co., Ind., a 
son of William and Eliza (Branson) Elliott. He was reared principally in 
Cambridge City, and was educated at the public schools. He afterward attended

He was married in 1847 to Rebecca Swayze, a native of Henry County, Ind., and

Elliott was again married in 1868 to Maria D. Bowman, a native of Erie, Pa. In 
1849 Mr. Elliott went to California and engaged in mining for eighteen months. 
He then returned to his native State, and has since been successfully engaged 
in the mercantile business, being the oldest merchant in Cambridge City. In 
politics Mr. Elliott is a Republican, and during the late war he was a staunch 
Union man.
