Hello list, I am researching the surnames Elam, Newton, and Yancey. In 1856, Mary Elam married Alexander Newton. She died before 1860 and Alexander then married Sarah Eakes, daughter of Alexander Eakes. Mary's mother's maiden name was Yancey. Kent Elam

Also, YANCEY fits into my surnames twice--The older sister of my great-great-great-great-great grandfather married Bartlett Yancey, Sr. and had 10 children. The youngest of these was the famed solicitor and politician Bartlett Yancey, Jr. Also, Alexis Howard, my great-great-great-great grandfather, was a grandson of the Reverend Hugh McAden. A few generations down the line, Graves married McAdens as did some Yanceys.
