Trying to find out what became of Nancy and her husband James or any of their children. My 2nd great grandfather was William ALLEN who was born near Campton in 1861. Bob George [email protected] web page: http://www.netzone.com/~moravia/index.html Looking for information concerning my mother's maternal grandfather,John ELAM, who in the fall of 1884 conceived a child with Emily BAILEY,daughter of Gabriel and Paulina BAILEY of Wolfe County. That child was my grandmother, Delora Elam, born July 16, 1895. I have found no evidence that John and Emily were married. One of Emily's grand daughters told me that Emily claimed that she had divorced John because he was a drunkard and that Emily's sister, Louisa Bailey AMBURGEY, said this was not true, that "John was not that kind of a man." Louisa was only about 8 when Delora was born, but married Robert Amburgey in 1903 and moved to Beattyville in Lee County, KY. By 1915 they were living in Washington State. On the 1900 census, Emily is listed as a single white female, living with her father on his farm in Wolfe County. Delora is listed as Gabriel Bailey's grand daughter and also living on the Bailey farm. The name Elam appears with Delora's but was lined through by the census taker. Have not been able to find any information on John. If anyone's research uncovers a possible link to John, I would be most happy to hear from you.
