Here is a clipping out of my grandmother's family Bible.
I have the name in my records as Carlis not Carlos. He was born in
Union Parish.  I don't know what paper it is out of, but the date of 
death my grandmother marked was 25 Jan 1962. His parents were William 
Henry ELLIOTT and Matilda Alice EDMONDS.

CARLOS E. ELLIOTT

Carlos Edward Elliott, who owned and operated Ed's State Line Cafe on
Highway 78 near Olive Branch, Mississippi, died at Baptist Hospital at
5:15 a.m. yesterday after a brief illness. He was 72.
Born in Bernice, La., on Jan 5, 1890, Mr. Elliott moved to Memphis in
1927. He operated a beauty and barber shop for 18 years. Thirteen years
ago he opened his restaurant, which will continue to be operated by his
wife, Mrs. Margaret Elliott.
He was a Baptist.
He also leaves three sons, Irby Elliott of Ruston, La., K. R. Elliott
of Memphis and Sgt. Mabry Elliott, stationed with the Army at Fort Knox,
Ky.; two sisters, Mrs. Florence Regan and Mrs. Fanny Grafton; and four
