My brother found a newspaper clipping among some old pictures that had been in my mother's possession. The article announced the marriage of W.D. ELAM of Montrose, Montrose County, CO to Miss Aileen L. IMES of Placerville, CO. This wedding was announced by the mother, Ruth A. IMES. The wedding took place in Montrose on Thursday, 08/13/1931. There was a handwritten notation at the bottom of the clipping that said Arleen Lucille IMES. My brother was copying this clipping at work and a fellow employee, Ted JOHNSON, asked what he was copying. Mr. Johnson said his grandfather's name was W. D. ELAM. He said his grandmother's maiden name was ENGLAND. He said his family came west from the eastern seaboard, possibly the Carolinas. They were in Whitesboro, Cooke County, TX for awhile and then migrated to northeastern OK near Tulsa. Some of the family went to CO and some went on to UT since they were Mormons. My brother related to Ted that our Grandmother, Mary Adeline ELAM Forkner had always said Jack ELAM, the actor, was her cousin. Mr. Johnson said Jack ELAM was his Grandfather's second cousin. Can anyone tell me in what county I would find Placerville, CO? Mr. Johnson has a sister, Dixie Lee Wolfe in Granbury, TX. I am hoping to get in touch with her to find more info on this family. ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
