If the "book" you are referring to is YORK, SOUTH CAROLINA, NEWSPAPERS MARRIAGE AND DEATH NOTICES, 1823-1865, the answer is that there is no Nathan Massey or Matilda McElwee mentioned.

He married Matilda McElwee in 1828. She also was supposed to have been born in 1798 although I'm not certain she was b. in York. Would your book have included a Matilda around that time who either was a McElwee or was married to a McElwee? > > ============================== > Ancestry.com--Your #1 Source for Family History Online--FREE for 14 Days > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=702&sourceid=1238
