| Info | Elliott Bulloch Roosevelt (February 28, 1860- August 14, 1894) was the father of Anna Eleanor Roosevelt and the brother of Theodore Roosevelt. Elliott and Theodore were of the Oyster Bay Roosevelts. Eleanor later married their Hyde Park Roosevelt cousin and future US President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
Elliott was the third of the four children of Theodore Roosevelt, Sr. and Martha Bulloch. He had one older sister, Anna, and one younger sister, Corinne (grandmother of journalists Joseph and Stewart Alsop). He was competitive with his older brother, Theodore. At a young age, Elliott was academically more successful than Teddy and seemed to many to be the most promising of the four Roosevelt children, however, he was eventually surpassed by his older brother. Elliott maintained a charming and winsome personality all his life. That charm would mask a growing drinking problem that started at a young age.
