There is no direct proof that this William Groten was the son of William Groten and his wife Mary, the widow of Isaac Dix.

| Birth* | circa 1720 | Solomon Kellam I was born circa 1720 at Accomack Co, VA.1 |
| Marriage* | circa 1745 | He married Keziah Parker, daughter of Sacker Parker and Leah Laylor, circa 1745. There is not direct proof that Solomon Kellam's 1st marriage was to Keziah Parker, or even someone with the given name Keziah. The Accomack County deed book indexes does not show a Solomon Kellam either buying or selling land before 1800, so we could not find a wife releasing her dower rights. However in trying to find why he named a son Sacker there is at least this one scenario (there could be others) that he had married this Keziah Parker. Her father was named Sacker Parker and his mother was Bridget Sacker and she had a brother named Sacker Parker. She also had a sister Sinah Parker, that would have been another candiate for the mother of Sacker Kellem, but Sinah was named as Sinah Parker in the will of her uncle Bayly Johnson in 26 Mar 1761, which was after the birth of Sacker Kellam. |
