Notes:

Hello Melinda,
I am Yvonne Kattawar and I am looking for information you might have for my gr grandfather Elijah Kelly, born in Sept.l825 in Decatur, Ga. I am trying to find his parents. All I know is that they were born in N. Carolina. I have located him on the 1860 census records in Jasper Co, Tx, 1870 and 1880 he was in Newton Co, Tx. Your Travis line in Sabine Co.,with connections to EK is not a coincidence. My gr grandfather was Cannon Travis, brother to Richard Henry. Cannon's daughter, Martha Jane (my grandmother) married James E. Kelly, whose father was Elijah.Thanks for your help.
