She was born about 1843 and married Thomas Burns about 1865 or so in Cabell County. Who were the parents of Marinda Adkins who is listed with Thomas T Adkins on the 1870 Census of Lincoln County and is his wife on the 1880 census of Lincoln County? These ladies are just about the same age. I have heard and been told that both of these ladies were the daughter of Hamilton and Jane ADKINS? Don't think that could be correct so need some documentation. Thanks Pat >> Pat, Here is the 1850 Census of Boone Co. WVA with Hamilton listed. I do have all of Lincoln Co. 1880 Census and did find a T.T. Adkins. If you would like a look up for Lincoln Co. in 1880, just let me know! I suggest going through the Boone Co. 1850 Census to look for Miranda!
