    Notes:

    REFN: 1149, History of Summers County, By Judge James H Miller, Page 474

    One of the oldest families of people in all this region of the New River Valley was that of Adkins or Atkins. They are said to have come into this region during the time of the Revolutionary War, and were first discovered living under cliffs on the Summers side of the river from New Richmond Falls, supposed to be the magnificent cliffs in the canyon at the mouth of Laurel Creek which empties into the New River half a mile from Lick Creek at New Richmond Post Office.

    They were hunters and trappers in the earliest days, and have continued so as long as there was game in this region, and their descendants are scattered one place and another throughtout this region and other counties. Once in awhile you will find a member of the generation rising above the common level, but no great advancements have been made in this race.

    There was a Parker Adkins, a man noted for his nose, the end of it being half the size of a man's fist; Riley Adkins, known as the "Chestnut Mountain Lawyer"; Leonard Adkins living in the Chestnut Mountain area; Albert Adkins, one of the most intelligent, lives near Hinton. Hen Adkins, one of the race, was drowned in Laurel Creek with L. M. Alderson's wedding suit on. Mr. Alderson was married twice and this was the suit he had purchased for his first marriage. He said that he sold a steer to secure the broadcloth suit.

    Sometimes the name is spelled Atkins and sometimes Adkins.

    The Gills are said to have come into the country about the same time and to have lived about the same way. The Gills and the Adkins have intermarried. There is an intelligent family by the name of Atkins, now residing in the Little Bluestone country of a different generation. A thriftless, harmless, indolent, unambitious race of people as a race, but without malicious cunning or dangerous, indigenous race are the Gills and Adkins.

    Possibly the ancestors were Tories who emigrated into this then fastness to escape military service.

    Notes:

    Note in brief clarification related to the allegation that Jacob Harley was the "Earl of Oxford" by Doug Couch, owner of this website:

    This family legend seems to be unfounded. One website (site not recorded) which cited this "title" stated that it was a term of endearment, rather than a bona fide English title. This is a more likely scenario.

    The earliest Earls of Oxford (20) all lived too early to have been the father of a Jacob Harley married to Mary Adkins, except perhaps the last, Aubrey de Vere, the 20th Earl of Oxford, rather than the 3rd as often cited as Jacob's father. Records from peerage show both those Earls who succeeded to the position, and those who did not. The Earls of Oxford held the position from 1110-1703.

    Also called Earl of Oxford, were the Earls of Oxford and Mortimer. The time period for these Earls is more compatible with the Jacob legend, holding the position from 1661-1853. Of these, the 3rd Earl, Edward, had three sons, Edward (4th Earl), John (father of Edward the 5th Earl), and Thomas (Mayor of London). None of these more contemporary Earls' cited descendants were named Jacob. This does not prove there was no Jacob son; however, it "may" indicate that such a son was illegitimate and not in line for the Earldom.

    There were also the Earls of Oxford and Asquith from 1852 to the present day. These Earls were all born too late to have a son named Jacob married to Mary.

    If Jacob was known to be a descendant or other relative of an Earl of Oxford, and thus lovingly called an Earl by his family, no connection has been shown. One or two authors of genealogy works have cited him as such, but unless someone produces the basis of such a citation, it has no value.

    If there had been a Jacob, Earl of Oxford, or a Jacob in line to become Earl of Oxford, it is unlikely he would run off to North America and abandon such a vast wealth, and there are protocols and expectations involved. It is also unlikely that such a man would have a son, Jacob (Jr.), who would inherit all this wealth and then ignore it in favor of a trip across the Allegheny's, as is sometimes also part of the family legend. Whether a term of endearment or simply a wild family tale, there is little reason to accept it as a fact. If Jacob returned to England, where is the record of such a voyage, as there surely would be one?

    Name:
    (Stober, Stauber, Stauffer — The red border around Jacob's surname indicates this is updated information somewhat resolving previously posted ambiguous information.)

    Jacob married Mary Adkins. Mary (daughter of William V. Adkins, Sr. and Elizabeth Parker) was born on 12 Sep 1735 in Goochland Co, VA; died about 1820 in Bowen's Creek, Beech Fork, Cabell Co, VA; was buried in Bowen's Creek, Beech Fork, Cabell Co, VA . [Group Sheet]


  8. 53.  Mary Adkins was born on 12 Sep 1735 in Goochland Co, VA (daughter of William V. Adkins, Sr. and Elizabeth Parker); died about 1820 in Bowen's Creek, Beech Fork, Cabell Co, VA; was buried in Bowen's Creek, Beech Fork, Cabell Co, VA .

    Notes:

    Birth:
    alt birth as 5 Sep 1735 Jamestown Colony, Goochland Co, VA
    alt birth as 12 Oct 1735 Richland, Goochland Co, VA


    Died:
    unmarked grave at mouth of Bowen's Creek (is right at the county line between Cabell County and Wayne County)

    Notes:

    Married:
    • Per researcher, Ralph Adkins, Jacob Stover & Mary Adkins were both in Snow Creek District of Lunenberg Co, VA in 1754; which is also the birth year for Mary's oldest child, David Adkins.

    DNA evidence suggests that Jacob Stover, Jr. was the father of Mary's children (him being at least the most likely candidate).
    • If that is true however, it is unclear why Mary's children bore the Adkins name.



    Regarding suppositions of a common law marriage between Mary Adkins and either Jacob Harley or Jacob Oxford: Common Law Marriage has never been recognized in Virginia or West Virginia. Only in certain documented out of state common law marriages does West Virginia recognize certain rights along with certain previous out of state domicile and other requirements. (per some legal opinions given online)

    DNA results suggest that the father of Mary Adkins' son, Jacob, was an Oxford.
    • If that is true however, it is unclear why Mary's children bore the Adkins name.

    From Family notes of Virginia Pierce: "Elizabeth Parker is the daughter
    of Richard Parker and Mitha of England. She married 17 Jan 1716 William
    Atkinson in the St. John's Episcopal Church in Richmond, Henrico Co.,
    Virginia. The descendants of William Atkinson shortened the name to
    Adkins.
    From Adkins' Family History:
    "Very little is known of Elizabeth as women were seldom mentioned in the
    official records of the day. She was born ca 1695. This date is pretty
    well locked up as she was married in 1716 making her in the range of 21
    (an age about average for the time). Her children were born between the
    nineteen yr. period between 1717 and 1735 (the hear of her child bearing
    yrs). As mentioned above she was the daughter of Richard Parker who with
    his family lived on the James River at the head of Four Mile Creek in
    Henrico Parrish. "
    On Ancestor chart from Virginia Pierce, it lists Elizabeth's birth as
    1695,in Lawrence Co., Kentucky
    Ancestral File has an entry that list Elizabeth's death place as
    Goochland, Va. This entry also takes her line back several more
    generations.
    Marriage:
    Note: William and Elizabeth were married in the St. John's Episcopal
    Church in Richmond.
