In a note from Mary Harriet A. Daniel to her cousin, Ada: She lists the male members of the William P. Daniel family as Harrel Daniel, Will Daniel, Walt Daniel, Hunley Daniel, and Jim Daniel. She says she thinks her father Wiley E. Daniel was "Wilie Elmus". The name "Elmus" probably came from a great uncle of Wiley. Wiley's mother had an uncle named Gulielmus Wiggins whom they called Elmus.)
