Burial: Unknown, Oakwood Cementery, Rubicon Township, Greene Co., Illinois1

Notes for ELIAS DAMM:

The family has changed the spelling of the name over the years.  Some took the "Damm" spelling; some took the "Daum" spelling; and some may have kept the "Dahm" spelling. I have verbal family reports that Elias's generation began using "Daum" around 1900.  My grandfather's official records reflect "Daum", but he preferred the "Damm" spelling.  Apparently they held a family meeting and took a vote regarding the spelling of the name.  Obviously, Elias kept the "Damm" spelling.
