From "Kellam Family of Worcester County Maryland and Brown County Ohio" http://w3.one.net/~ddoster/kellam_family_of_worcester_count.htm


In 1666, John Kellam II became the manager of "Benefields," a three thousand acre tract in Pocomoke Hundred owned by Col. Charles Scarborough, brother of Col. Edmund Scarborough. Col. Edmund Scarborough invaded Maryland with the intention of claiming its southern portion for Va., but the scheme failed. The disputed Pocomoke & Annnemessex River areas remained in Maryland. Many Quaker & Presbyterian dissenters settled along the Annemessex in Somerset County. Perhaps Richard Kellam quarreled with his nephew, John Kellam, over "Kellam's Folly." Richard & John Kellam and their families had few dealings with each other, so the dispute may have affected their descendants.[4] Richard Kellam lived to the age of eighty-four, enjoying life on his plantation and dying in 1703 [5]. Before his death, he transferred all his acreage to his children. A colorful figure, Richard Kellam was an energetic adventurer, just the man for the hardships of colonial settlement. He was instrumental in bringing John Kellam II to Virginia. [6]
