You have a lot of information, I do think you have the wrong James Elder.The above James Elder is probably of Robert Elder and wife Sarah Moore. In Jefferson Co. the James Elder son of William & Rebecca (Cates) Elder had moved to IL. with most of his brothers and one known sister. James Elder son of William (brother of Robert) m.Didama French and they settled in Sullivan, Moultrie Co., IL. If you need that information I have it.On Robert Jan Wallace would know more as her ancestors were Robert & wife Sarah (Moore) Elder,Avy/Ava Elder dau. of Robert & Sarah m. Daniel Cate, a different Cate line than Rebecca Cates who m. Wm Elder. Daniel was the brother of my great-great-grandmother Alzira Cate who married Wm T. Mount in Jefferson Co TN. I think Jan has your line. She went to Meigs and took some beautiful pictures of Goodfield Cemetery etc. Ann Poe
