An American Heritage Story
With all its tidbits of historical facts, Gloria Elams story of her ancestors would be of interest to people even outside her family. She paints a picture of characters reaching hundreds of years back, one that rolls nicely and is fun to read. You very quickly get involved with the tale. Carolea Hassard, Texas weekly newspaper journalist In her book, Gloria Peoples Elam has traced her family from the ancient border area between Scotland and England to the present time. The coverage of the historical events in this book is impressive and complete. From 1649 and the first ancestry on the James River to the American Revolution, the Battle for Texas Independence, the Civil War, World War I, to World War II, Peoples ancestors have been involved. They have been part of the history of Parker County Texas, where she resides; and also throughout Texas and the State of Oklahoma. Down through the years the caretakers of our history have been invaluable. Gloria has been a very effective caretaker of her family history and much, much more. Laurie Moseley III, Curator, Springtown Legends Museum, Texas State Archaeological, Society Member and Past President, Retired Texas Educator ""As you read the pages of this wonderful book you will quickly see Gloria's passion for history as she unfolds the history of her family in the settling of these United States. Her ancestry will come alive before you and you will be gently reminded that in some way we are all a part of this Great American Heritage."" Pastor Doug Harris, Agnes Baptist Church, Springtown Chamber of Commerce President 2011-2012 ""It was fascinating to read this genealogical history of Gloria's family that she so cleverly has woven through different eras of America's history. She managed to account for her family ancestors and established a legacy by placing them in the important events taking place in America from the 1600's to the late 1800's.""
