If any of this looks familiar please write me! I need to do more research in courthouse records to find more details on the daughters of Elias and Dora. All I know to date: 1) My gggfather Elias Kemp (b 1834 Mar; Maryland [or England?]) married Dora Ingles (b 1839 May; Germany[Na]) on August 7, 1857 in Iron County, MO. I have no idea who his parents or siblings were. In two different census' he is listed as being born in Maryland and the other in England. They moved to Bonham, Fannin County, Texas between 1876--1880.
