I was poking around in our local library several days ago and came across a book entitled "Ardery's Kentucky Records" originally published in 1926 and reissued by the Genealogical Publishing Company: Daviess Co., KY Marriages: John McFarland m. 12-23 1838 Indiana B. Elam Shelby Co., KY Marriages/Wills Richard Elam - Inventory, Nov 1800 - Ex. Elizabeth Elam, Sec. Francis Hall, Ap. John Shannon, Moses Hall, Singleton Wilson, Thomas King. Richard Elam m. 12-24-1796 Elizabeth Sorrels, dau. of Nelly Sorrels, Mrs. Elizabeth Elam married 1-5-1817 James H. Toncray. Hope this may help some Elam Folk. Ron Gollberg, Asheville, NC.
