Hi Betty, Do you know anything further about your Ella (Ellar) Adkins? Was she an Acree? My husband's line is from Acree and I think his grandfather's sister was Ella(Ellar) Acree Adkins or Atkins and she lived in Oklahoma City. I won't know anything about the Adkins or Atkins, if she is the same, but I do have a wealth of info about the Acree's. [email protected] >I am new to the list.
