Born in Alabama, probably Talladega County, around 1848. She was 21 years old at the time she died, according to the U. S. Federal Census Mortality Schedule.
Alabama Florence and her mother were likely buried on Elam family property, but the location of their graves is currently unknown.
[Note: It is very unlikely that Sarah Elam was buried at Zion Hill, as is shown on Find-A-Grave. The Elams lived in the southwestern part of Rusk County, apparently somewhere between Laneville and New Salem, possibly around Glenfawn -- not in the vicinity of the Zion Hill Cemetery. After Sarah's death, Joel married Frances Sparkman Hanes. However, the Sparkmans were also living at that time somewhere between Laneville and Glenfawn -- not Zion Hill.]
