Carol -- I can try to find your Adkison/Adkinson next time I go to the Library. The particular book that I mentioned is one of several with that Title. A.H. Orr Editor, "The history of Saline County, Missouri", 1967 Walworth, Marceline MO Another is: Napton, William Buckley - "Past and Present of Saline County, Missouri" B.F. Bowen & Co. Indianapolis Ind., 1910 These two books are in our Johnson County Library, and I will peruse them for you when I can get out there. Possibly the best, (but quite expensive) is: "The History of Saline County, Missouri", published by the Missouri Historical Society of St. Louis, in 1881, and available as a reprint from Genealogy Publishing Company, Baltimore. I think the price is $95, since they print it to order. The List has been privileged in recent months to hear excerpts from this book, sent in by "Dwight & Shelly" dsanders@tacnet.missouri.org . You might ask them to lookup your bootheel cousins. Finally, I hear that the Saline County Historical Society has published a new book in the summer of 2000. The Marshall Mo. library is said to have a copy. But this book might not be useful for you, because it was compiled from people submitting articles of 500 words and one picture. Probably depends on when your Adkinsons were in the area. Send me your e-mail address and I will reply off-list.
