I am keeping track of this family mainly to avoid confusing them with the family of Walter C. Easterling and Eliza Jane Downing.

Notes for Susanna Elam
Morgan Co., Ky death records list Susannah Easterling, age 43, died 23 June 1857, cause of death consumption, father Jeremiah M. Elam, residence Licking.
The next line records the death of her baby daughter Martha.
Notes for Walter E. & Susanna (Family)
All of their children were born in Kentucky, so they were probably married there. But they are not listed in marriage records for Morgan or Floyd counties.
