Hi DSK and MOPlatters, Looking in the History of Clay and Platte Counties, I only saw references to the names CAMERON and PEBLEY. They were spelled a little differently and were found in the Clay County section of the book. It says: <'At the first election held in Clay County, in August 1822, the following were the voters in Fishing River township, which at that time, however, comprised the entire eastern half of the county...(The names of 100 men who voted are listed.) Jonathan Camron Elisha Camron Thomas Peebley The judges of this election were Elisha Camron, James Munkers and John Hutchins. The.....'> There were some Hawkins listed in the Clay County index but none were your names, but were Alfred, B.F., John C., Nancy and Wm. There is a fairly long bio on William H Hawkins that mentions his father John C. who came from Woodford County KY. The only mention of a TN connection is the sentence about Nancy which says that Andrew B Ross's 'wife, Nancy Ross, was a Miss Hawkins before her marriage and a native of Tennessee.' Nothing on your names in the Platte County half of the book. Since you said you had looked in the Platte County Annals, I didn't look there.
