                     March 24, 1937   Delight, Ark.                        
                                                                           
Dear Niece, was glad to hear from you, hope to see you someday. Tell your  
Mother and Father I wish I could see them. Tell them to come to see us     
sometime, we are feeling very well. John is not able to work. Hope this    
find(s) you all well. I hope you can make this all out. I can't hardly see 
to write. I have done the best I could not having any records. You write to
Sarah Sparks, Delight, Ark., is Sallie Wingfield's daughter. I guess she   
can tell you more about her grandmother and grandfather Mobley than any one
here can. I hope I have been some help to you. I hope to hear from you     
again, your aunt.                                                          
                                                                           
                              Sarah J. Lamb                                
                                                                           
My father was Elijah Kelley. He was Giles N. Kelley's father. Elijah Kelley
was born in Jackson county, Tenn., Sep. 14, 1800, and they moved to        
Illinois in 1804, from there to Wolf Creek, Pike County, Ark., 1815, where 
he labored on his farm until his death in August 26th, 1884. My mother's   
name, Elizabeth Sherfield, the Newton was on her mother's side. She was    
born April 22, 1824, if I am correct she married Brinley, he lived about 2 
years and died. She was quite young when father married her. She died Feb. 
14th, 1905. This is all I know about her. I don't know anything about her  
people. I think she came from Crowley's Ridge here.                        
                                                                           
                      Father's first set of children.                      
                                                                           
I will give you the names of his first set of children. He was married     
twice. Wesley Kelley and Polly Kelley was twins. Wesley was married twice. 
I don't know (who) he married the first time. He married Patterson the last
time. Polly married John McLaughlin. Emily married Finn McLaughlin. Margret
Kelley married Milas Bagwell. Nancy Kelley married (a) Ward. Amanda Kelley 
married John Cloud. Elijah Kelley, I think married a Dickson. Abner H.     
Kelley, I don't know who he married. Eight of these half brothers and      
sisters. I have no record of their ages.                                   
                                                                           
Giles Newton Kelley married Ann Mariah Mobley. He was born 1842 or about   
that time. James Ashley Kelley was born about 1844, married Landon Wilson. 
Lydia M. Kelley was born about 1847, married T.H. Allison. Elias Wade      
Kelley, born 1850, married Josephine Kelley. William Robinson Kelley was   
born July 22 in 1853. Elizabeth L. Kelley was born March 6, 1856. Sarah    
Jane Kelley was born July 22, 1859 married John A. Lamb. John Kelley was   
born February 10, 1862 married Alice Kirkham. You can count my age and tell
how old I am. Here we are 10 in all, all dead and gone. I am left for      
something good. I hope I am able to do my mark yet.
