Hello List is anyone researching this line? I am interested in the Rev War soldier John that migrated to Cabell for a while. He is listed on the papers as Atkins but in the census as Adkins. I believe he may be my John Adkins father. He may have died in Cabell or returned to Fayette. debbie

I have a Death Certficate for their son Joe C. Adkins. He was born about 1864 in TN (Campbell Co., I think) and died in Harlan Co., KY in 1945. His wife, Mae, was informant. I think this family may be related to Elisha and Rebecca Adkins, possibly through their son Eligah and his wife Catherine Adkins. I also think Joe may be an older brother to my great grandfather, William M. Adkins. "Lige" may have had a second marriage to a Fannie Hutson. Can anyone help me sort this family out?

William was born circa 1806 and Phebe was born circa 1813 - both in New Jersey according to the census. They had many children - the 1850 census is most complete with all of the children. Their son Ward is my great great grandfather. Ward moved to Seymour, CT. My grandfather Lee Elton Adkins lived in Darien, CT and during the depression, he went back to NJ to find whatever work he could. I'd love to be able to go back further, but have hit a wall.

Surnames: Adkins Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/AJ.2ADIB/2489.1.1.1.1.2.2 Message Board Post: AN ARTICLE ON THE ADKINS FAMILY: From: "Now and Then" put out by the Landmarks Commission and Historical Society, dated Fall - 2001 Vol. 12-Clay Co., WV In it was an article "Recollections of an Old Man," by William Kyle about 1928. I do not think the Adkins family was among the first setters of Buffalo, but they have been here a long time and have muliplied almost like the Israelites in Egypt. I am sorry to say I cannot tell where they came from. I recall that when I was a small boy, William Adkins came to my father's to buy some breadstuff. He was then an old man. He came ontoo the field whre my father was reaping wheat and made known his wants. Corn was scarce, but father went to his threshing floor and threshed and cleaned a half-bushel of wheat for him. I remember how he examined the wheat, tried to pinch the grains with his thumbnail, said it was very firm and then put it in his linen sack. Mr. Adkins had a large family of boys, most of whom were men at that time. I saw several of them in later years. I think Franklin was the oldest, then came Haram, Isam, Nathan and William, "(Snuffing Billy as he was called on account of a sniffing habit he had contracted)." Uncle Maurice who lived on Lillys Fork was also one of the boys. Many people now living remember him and some of his odd sayings. So far as I know he outlived all the rest of the family which was a very large one. I think some of them moved to Coal River years ago. Frank, the oldest son lived and raised his family on Lilly Fork of Buffalo. His oldest son was named Maurice but was generally know as "brother". He married a daughter of George Nicholas. Two of the boys married daughters of Uncle Tom Deal, Linton & Harrison - These were Frank's sons- They were uneducated, of a very spiteful disposition and never forgot an injury. They were fond of coon hunting and valued their coon dogs very highly. If a man killed one of their dogs, he might expect to lose a cow or horse in the near future. Some things happened sometimes, but they were never able to get any proof against them.

I believe other sibs were: Isom Adkins b abt 1798 married Mary "Polly" Miller Henderson Adkins b abt 1813, married Isabel Adkins Harmon Adkins b abt 1814 married Lucy Estep (believe she was also a dau of Wesley and Virginia Green Estep) Nathan Adkins b abt 1819 married Ruth Estep (I have her dau of Shadrach Estep and Elizabeth Hunt) Jackson Adkins (went by Charley or Champ) b November 17, 1822 and married Matilda McNeely, Benjamin Adkins b abt 1825 married Druzilla.

Oct.26,1847 and it is quite possible she married Isom they only lived one door down from each other in 1860 and there was a Harmon Adkins as Isom's father.Nancy's parents were Virginia Green and Wesley Estep ,Her sib's were Wlliam,Andrew,Hansford,Jane,Mary,and Eli.The rumor has been that Eli's father was a Thomas Kessinger but he always went by Estep.I believe that another Nancy also married William Estep and I think that she went by Nancy Bailey and her parents went by Ben and Drusilla and they had a William,Samuel,Miles and a Clara.Eli is my Ggrandfather and Clara is my Ggrandmother.Now with the Bailey's it is a unique situation,in my search I had found them as Adkin's up until 1880.Then they used the name Bailey.I have the Adkins on all of the censuses that have my family and it had usually been Morris and Harman and maybe John and quite a few others but your Adkins sounds like my family connection also.William and Isabel Adkins,They were ! both born abt. 1830.The other William Adkins was the son of Harmon Sr.and he was born about 1849 ,I believe that Wesley's sister Nancy had married this Harmon but I am not real sure.It can be real confusing at times.Thank you for your reply and I be happy to share info with you.
