Hi, Thanks for your reply. I really don't know too much as I am just starting out. My Grandmother was Emma Kellam, her Mothers last name was Mister,they were from the Davis Wharf area. She married my Grandfather Savastion Adams who owned a saw mill that burned down in same area.They had 2 children william and Stanley. There was an aunt Mannie Bull was her maiden name and a cousin Janie that I visited as a child in that area. There has been talk that my Grandmother was related (cousin) to Admiral Bird however I am not sure how. My Grandmothers Brothers name was Willie however I do not know if that was William since I only know him as Uncle Willie. He had owned a Candy factory or store but lost during the depression.My Grandfather dredged oysters on the bay there at Davis wharf and owned property there.In his later years he lived in a one room house on the shore and my Grandmother lived in Baltimore she went blind.thanks in advance for any info you can give me re: the Kellams ,Misters etc in Eastern Shore area.

Hello Glenda, I have been trying to sort your question. I have a William T. Kellam marrying a Emily J. Mister on Sept. 20, 1874. William was 23 and Emily was 20 yrs. old. I do not have any children listed for them. His brother Edward married a Manie Bull the second time. Their sister Bettie had a daughter Janie. This seems to fit your question and info you gave. Don't know of any relationship with Adr. Bird. Kay Kellam France At 02:19 PM 8/24/01 EDT, you wrote: >Hi, > Thanks for your reply. I really don't know too much as I am just starting >out.
