The History of Freestone County, Texas; Vol. I, p. 223 Lafayette Houston "Fate" Adkins was born in AL in 1851. The family moved to LA. Just before the Civil War, the father left his family and came to TX but was killed in TX and never returned. The mother and her children: Fate, Aggrippa "Grip," Sue, & Nanny came to Freestone Co. after the Civil War. Fate married Martha Melissa Black; Grip married Sallie Eugenia Lancaster; Sue Mourning m. Robert Johnson; Nanny m. a Goodwin. All lived in the Dew/Lanely area of the county but many of their descendants moved to OK. Perhaps someone else on the list can provide you with the names of the parents. Mike
Apologies to all. I am doing this for my 83 year old mother .This is my FINAL attempt for looking for Robert aka Tom ADKINS/ATKINS for her. After this, I am going to quit. I am too old for this. Therefore, in my last ditch effort, I am going to post this in the TX counties where he could have been in TX. If you receive this on other boards in TX that you belong to, please delete it. I know it can be a burden. This man did not exist but I have a hard time explaining that to mother. Conflicts in our knowledge of Robert aka Tom ADKINS: 1] He was a millwright and he was always named Tom and he got his arm cut off in a saw and got blood poisining and died. He supposedly died before 1890 in TX. 2] All the other ancestors say he and his wife both died in the cholera epidemic of 188? whenever it was in TX and that they are burried in an unmarked grave. 3] Mary Elizabeth "Mollie" ADKINS (Robert aka Tom's daughter) claimed to be a first cousin to former Speaker of the House of Representatives during the Eisenhour Administration, Samuel "Sam" TALIAFERRO RAYBURN b January 6, 1882 Roane County, Tennessee. Sam lived most of his life in Bonham, Fannin County, Texas. Mollie's death certificate lists her father as Tom ADKINS and so do the Funeral Home Records. 4] Robert's grandaughter who died last year gave me an old newspaper article on Samuel "Sam" James ERVIN/ERWIN Jr a former Representative from North Carolina born in Morganton, Burke County, North Carolina September 27, 1896. He was elected to the Seventy-ninth Congress to fill the vacancy caused by the death of his brother, Joseph Wilson ERVIN/ERWIN and served from January 22, 1946 to January 3, 1947. She says we are also related to him. I can NOT find either of these connections yet. Thinking it might be with a WALLER though. 5] All the information on Robert aka Tom ADKINS says his parents were both from LA. All the census information on his children (ALL of them) says Robert Adkins was born in TX. 6] Robert aka Tom ADKINS had one of his sons, James Samuel spell his name ATKINS in Clay Co, TX Court Documents. WHAT WE KNOW about ROBERT aka Tom ADKINS FOR SURE: Limestone Co, Texas Marriages Book A 1873-1876 R.S.

On the Franklin Co., GA list, someone posted the names of soldiers in the American Revolution buried in that county. The following might be of interest to someone on this list: Thornton, Dozier: born 14 April 1755; died 12 September 1843; North Carolina militia Mike
Regarding my post of James Nicks family, I listed James' wife as being Arminta, my mistake, her name was Louisiana Adella Kilborn Nicks. Her parents were A. H. Harriett & James Kilborn IV. Sorry, maybe this will help in finding my Nicks line. Wanda
Billie, Thank you so much for the below data on my Nicks family. Yes, this is my family. I just wish I could get in contact with some of their descendants. Wife Louissie? may have been what they called Arminta, maybe her middlee name? She was a Kilborn before marriage and sister to my ggrandmother Roxey Ann Kilborn DeLoach. Again, thanks for your help.

I found that my public library has a research link that I can access from home with my library card. The site is HeritageQuest and is searchable by year, state, county, township or name. I can go right to the page I need without having to scan images and pray for an index. Granted, they do not have all years and are in the process of loading 1920, but it is well worth the time to check to see if your local library has this site available to you. Joyce
Hi Andrea, The index I use for 1910 is on www.genealogy.com. For 1920, www.ancestry.com is indexed. I have searched for people in those years through those indexes that have not always shown up though. I will send you what I find from those indexes. Hopefully that will help.

Thanks to all of you who responded to my query about the 1910 census and my family the "Monk's" I finally found them with some help on the LEON co. 1910 census. The transcriber had put their name down as MORK. Anyway I finally found them and now on to 1920. I did find out some more info on the 1910 census. There's was another son that I didn't know anything about. His name was Dewey Monk and he was 7 on the 1910 census. All the children along with the parents were born in Texas. Here's what I have so far: 1880 Brown county census William Monk 45 Mary A. 32 Mary A. 15 Jno. W 10---should be 13 Martha 8 Robt.
