 Anmerkung |
Elliott Bulloch Roosevelt (February 28, 1860- August 14, 1894) was the brother of US President Theodore Roosevelt and the father of Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, who would marry her 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. 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. Elliott was Theodore's best-man on October 27, 1880 on Theodore's first marriage to Alice Roosevelt. When Elliott was 23, he met the beautiful Anna Hall, and they wed quickly, producing three children, Anna Eleanor (1884-1962), Elliott Jr (1889-1893), and Gracie Hall (1891-1941). After this point, Elliott Sr. developed a "casual drinking" problem, which soon became alcoholism. Despite his drunkenness, Eleanor adored her father and he doted on her. Eleanor would always remember her father's tender affection for her and write a book about her father's hunting adventures. While not excusing his conduct, she sensitively tried to highlight his positive virtues. Due to his drinking problem, Elliott was exiled to Virginia, where he would constantly write letters, mostly to Eleanor. Eleanor later recalled that on his many horseback riding expeditions with the young children in Virginia, he became attached to "one girl in particular whom I was jealous." On occasion, he would, to the jubilation of Eleanor, return back home for a few days. Finally, his drinking ruined him. At the age of 34, Elliott tried committing suicide by jumping out a window, but failed, had a seizure, and died. On Franklin and Eleanor's wedding day in 1905, her "Uncle Ted" gave the bride away.
