I know that part of my Adkins family were from TN and I believe the "James Hargis" I'm referring to was from TN as was John Burgess the man my "Maggie" married. My Adkins family were moonshiners so they "travelled". I have pretty much given up on finding them "in the books". I'm pretty sure they avoided it well! My only clue has been a couple of them found in JAIL! Anyway if your people travelled in the same circles you might check there too. I think they all were a pretty compulsive bunch! I f can be of any help I will sure try.
