Join the Atkins Surname Project Website: www.familytreedna.com/public/adkins Description: ADKINS, ATKINS, or any reasonable spelling variation are welcome to join the project. Only males have Y-chromosomes, so only male ADKINS/ATKINS can participate. If you are female, you can have a male ADKINS/ATKINS relative submit a sample for your line. To participate meaningfully, testees will need to share their direct male line ancestry back to the earliest known ADKINS/ATKINS, either in the form of a pedigree chart or, preferable, family group sheets (excluding living persons). Surnames in Project: Adkins, Atkins Requirements: Since a Surname Project in essence traces members of a family that share a common surname, and females (a) don't carry their father's Y-DNA, and (b) acquire a new surname by the way of marriage, in order to be relevant to the Surname Project, the tested individual must be a male that wants to check his paternal line (father's father's father's...). The test to be ordered is either the Y-DNA12, Y-DNA25 or Y-DNA37, and females should look for a brother or cousin with that surname to be tested. Females can also order a test for themselves, which will be the mtDNA or mtDNAPlus, but the results of this test cannot be tied to the Surname Project.

Have some information and am more than willing to share. Thanks, Gary.

I have updated my website again. I have put the information into a new format. Now, you can choose between family group sheet view and book format. I have privatized some of the facts (i.e. social security numbers). Also, I have started researching through the West Virginia Vital Research Records website to find death certificates. I have found a lot, and updated some of my data with the information. I will be updating my database periodically with the information I get from the death certificates. If you are interested in what I have, go to this website: http://home.hiwaay.net/~jjadkins/genealogy/ I have information on over 11,000 individuals. The family names include Adkins, Burns, Chandler, Hager, Sias, Yeager, Walls, Pennington (group 26), and many more. The families are mainly in the areas of Cabell, Wayne, and Lincoln Counties of West Virginia from 1692 to present. James -- James J. Adkins II jjadkins@gmail.com http://fly.hiwaay.net/~jjadkins
