My grandfather Garneth McCormick and Asa were the sons of George Washington McCormick of the McCorkle area. Asa's mother was Bettie Hill. George and Bettie divorced and George married again to Serepty Smith. Bettie must have married an Adkins. Here is a list of Uncle Asa's (or Acey as it was pronounced) mother's other children and where the 1/2 brothers were living in 1960 when Asa died: Spence and Bill Adkins, both of Spurlockville, Mrs. Maggie Adkins, Mrs. Mary Hill and Mrs. Sally White. Does anyone have any additional information on this side of his family? Asa lived most of adult life in Boone County, but had deep ties to Lincoln. I have found more than one Spence Adkins. Bettie's son may have been named for a kinsman of named Spencer Hill.
