Peel and boil the sweet potatoes until fork-tender. After they're drained and cooled enough to handle, slice them as you would for scalloped potatoes.
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the onion; cook until tender to slightly brown. Stir in flour and all seasonings, and cook over low heat for 2 or 3 minutes - until bubbly. Pour the milk in all at once. Stir constantly until the mixture boils; boil for about a minute. Stir in 1 cup of the cheese.
In a greased 9 x 13 x 1 casserole dish, add a layer of ham and of sweetpotatoes. Pour the cheese mixture. Repeat the layers until the top is reached - sprinking with remaining cheese. Bake covered at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, then uncover and cook another 10 minutes or until bubbly-hot.
