  1.   The Iams/James family as it relates to the history of the Fought family is not to be confused with other historically researched persons with the last name of James, Ames, or Imes. Be sure to note the individuals place of birth, place of residence, and place of death and place of burial. Compare the aforementioned points of reference with any questionable individuals with similarly connected last names. Many times people did not know how to spell their own names and various references may spell that person's name several different ways. Don't always assume that two or three people, all similar in every way except the spelling of their name, are actually different people. Most likely they are the same person. That having been pointed out, In relative comparison with the individual Elizabeth James, her actual last name is Iams. In the old english derivative spelling of the names, the Latin uses an "I", not a "J". This family branch didn't change their name to James as others had, but kept the original "Iams" spelling. The pronunciation varied as well as you can imagine.
