Trying to get a handle on the Botkins of Pendleton County. They were apparently there from about 1796- 1850 or more. Here is what I have but very unsure of. James Bodkin, b.abt 1830 to John and Mary Armstrong Bodkin. John Bodkin, b. abt 1803 to John and Elizabeth Vint Bodkin. John Bodkin,b. abt 1770 to John and Mary Bodkin. Before that they seemed to be in Highland County. Was that the county that Pendleton came from? Would appreciate any clues. Thank you. Gail Brevard,NC
