Portrait and Biographical Album, Gratiot County, Michigan by Chapman brothers 1881..... Pg. 592
Kelmar Ely, editor of Alma Record, was born Aug. 29, 1853, in Chautauqua Co., N.Y., and is a son of Derwin and Helne (Hart) Ely. His father was a native of Chautauqua County also, and the marriage of his parents occurred in the village of Delanti, in the same county. They remained there resident two years, when they came to Michigan, and in 1855, settled in Alma. The father was a framer and built a pioneer house on the north bank of Pine River. He inhabited his log house a year and erected a dwelling on the south bank of the "Pine", which is now incorporated in the building known as the "Myer House". Two years later he sold out to his brother, Flavius, and returned to his native county, where he resumed his occupation as a agriculturist and remained seven years. On the death of his brother, Flavius, at Alma, he returned to that place and assumed charge of the children of his brother. He is still resident at Alma, and combines the occupation of builder and farmer.......
