Surnames: Hankins Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3h.2ADE/375.545.1 Message Board Post: Mr.Hankins, I just read your posting on Ancestry.com message board. I am trying to find more info on the children of John H. Hankins. These are the names I was given: Nathaniel 1808, John Henry 1810, George W. 1812, Jeremiah 1818, William Walter 1822, Augustus Frederick 1824, Amanda 1827, Wilhelmina Henrietta 1828, Richard 1829,and Preston 1831. As you are probably aware, this has been a hard bunch of kids to track down. Seems like they scattered with the winds! I have some of the spouses and a few of the children but would like to find all of them. I believe I have most of Wm. Walter's children and spouse but no children. I found Amanda and husband, Charles W. Keith on 1850 and 1860 but there may be more children on the 1870. I found Augustus and 5 yr. old son, W.H. on the 1860 Brown Co. IL. I hate it when the census taker was too lazy to spell out whole names! Aparently his wife had died. He was married to Elizabeth O'Neal 8 Dec 1850 in Brown Co. I was given info that he died 31 Jan 1898 in Nauvoo, Hancock, IL. John Henry md Martha Ann Phegley, Wilhelmina md Isaac Hodgen Keith, and William Walter md Louzena (Lusina) Jones. The others I don't have. I have been using the Ancestry.com census index but it has been somewhat a struggle to find them. As you know, sometimes they are listed by their middle names or just initials. I don't know how accurate all of this info is but it is what I was given or found. Do you have any more that you would be willing to share with me? I would really like to have the names of their children I would really appreciate hearing from you. Shirley Taylor

Was surprised to read the name of Nathaniel Hankins and I realize this is not the Nathaniel that I am looking for but possibly the father John had a brother Nathaniel. The Nathaniel I am looking for married a young widow Jane (Burton) Walker in 1811 Shelby County, Kentucky. She died approximately 4 years later. I do not know if she had any children with Hankins or not, but she had four young children by Walker and her brother Prettyman Burton received/acquired guardianship of them until the daughter Sarah married, then her husband had guardianship of her 3 siblings. Do you have any of this in your family history? Thank you for taking the time to read this.
