I am also a decendent of James McElrath and Candice Bright.Their son, Byrd Mcelrath is my great gradnfather.
They lived in Dardnell, Yell Co. Ark.where they owned/operated a small store.He and his wife are burried in the cementary there.
He married Dora Jane Reyer and they had about 10 kids.All of their daughters were named after flowers.I have a copy of a poem that Dora wrote about her daughters.I also have a copy of the poem she wrote about their 3 sons.
Some of Byrd & Dora's children migrated to Oklahoma.
I would love to share the info that I have and see what you have.
