Posted on: Isle of Wight County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/IsleofWight/10831 Surname: Eley ------------------------- I'm looking for tidbits of info on the Eley family, which was prominent in Isle of Wight County in the 1700 and 1800s. In particular, I am seeking info on Robert L(emuel?) Eley, who was born b/w 1800-1810 and died in 1844. His death resulted in his two children by his first wife (Sally Darden, I THINK) becoming orphans (as per the guardian accounts of 1845). These children are Lemuel Eley and my ggg grandmother, Cavanda "Kitty" Ann Eley (b. b/w 1828-1832). Following Robert's death, Robert's second (?) wife, Martha Ann Holland (I THINK) married James M. Eley on Jan. 31, 1848. Cavanda Eley, along with Exum L. Eley, witnessed the marriage. What I need is Robert L(emuel?) Eley's parents and their lines if anyone knows them. In my research, I found a Lamuel/Lemuel Eley, who I believe is the son of Mills Eley. Could this be Robert L. Eley's father?? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheryl Long
