Hi Dolly, I took the liberty of redirecting your message to the Patrick Co. List. I hope someone here can help. In the meantime I will be looking in what books I have to see if I can come up with anything. Barb S. ======================================= HelloBarb, I'm new to this list and wonder if you could help me. I am looking for information on Reuben Atkins that was from Patrick Co. VA. I can't seem to get any farther than Reuben. He came to Trigg Co., KY around 1840 or so. I was hoping someone could help me. A cousin of mine has been to Patrick Co. VA and found some Atkins but she didn't get to stay long enough to find out anything. Please help. Dollie
