Notes:

Some children of AJA used ADKINS, while some used ATKINS. All children were born of the same parents.

Son, Virgil, said Andrew's brothers were Emery and Bellam.

Birth:
(Family recollection was that Andrew was born in Cabell County; however, his death record shows Putnam County and is undoubtedly from the memory of the informant, his son, Ray.)

VIEW BIOGRAPHY

Name:
• Andrew's draft registration, dated September 12, 1918 and signed by him, shows him with a birth date of August 10, 1883. This document is personally signed by Grampa Andrew, spelling his last name ATKINS.
• The Family Bible of his brother, Oliver Balaam ATKINS, gives his birth date as 8 Aug 1883.
• Census records do not agree on his age (which is not unusual for census records).
• Family recollection of his children while living agreed he was born on August 10, 1884.
• Further notes on spelling the family name:

• Further notes on spelling the family name:

• Grampa Andrew's children spelled it both Atkins and Adkins, with some children spelling it one way part of their life, and the other way another part of their life.
         • An example is one son's entire family spells it Atkins, and yet when he gave the information for Grampa Andrew's death certificate, he gave it as Adkins.
• Grampa Andrew himself, spelled it Atkins like his father, William C. Millard "Bud" Atkins, had spelled it.
• Beyond Andrew's father, Millard Atkins (sometimes called "Bud"), Andrew was preceded by
   1. His grandfather was Jesse ADKINS
   2. His great grandfather was Allen ADKINS
   3. His great great grandfather was Thomas (Thomas Tindel "Tinsley") ADKINS
• In addition to this,
   1. His grandmother, Jesse's wife, Letha, had a maiden name of ADKINS
   2. His great grandmother, Allen's wife, Mahala, had a maiden name of ADKINS
   3. His great great grandmother, Thomas's wife, Susannah, had a maiden name of ADKINS
• Although there are other explanations, the family name Adkins derives from a naming custom where families would indicate the earliest male ancestor by using the first two letters of the ancestor's given name, and add "kin" to it, indicating they were his kin, generations later. Using this convention, Adkins (plural) are the kin of Adam.

ancestry.com for Mary Frances Horton with a date of death of 1928. The census record was located in Mullins family tree.

One World Tree shows a Mary Horton (b 1900 d 1928) married to Andrew Adkins. Her father is shown as William Horton and mother as Octavia Egnor b abt 1866, d 1888.

Nada (Adkins) Strickland (deceased oldest child of Mary Horton Adkins) gave her recollection of her mother's birth as being in Griffithsville, West Virginia; however also said she was born in Putnam County. Currently, Griffithsville is in Lincoln County, but many years ago might have been in Putnam or Cabell counties, as boundaries changed many times.

Ezman married Martha A. Miller on 3 Aug 1880 in Boone Co, WV. Martha (daughter of Joseph Miller and Margaret Cummings) was born in Dec 1865 in Boone Co, WV; died on 25 Jul 1931 in Charleston, Kanawha Co, WV; was buried in Green Bias Cemetery, Turtle Creek, Boone Co, WV. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Married:
(The marriage record of Ezmon & Martha Miller has "West" crossed out, making that entry to read "Va" as many others in the list. However, Boone County, West Virginia was not a Virginia county in 1880, and is deep inside West Virginia. Boone County was formed from other counties in 1847, and West Virginia was formed from Virginia in 1863, making Boone County, WV the correct location.)

Notes:

Birth:
James' birth date is given on his death certificate as 1857, and on his gravestone as 1854.

James married Rozena J. Miller on 15 Apr 1879 in Boone Co, WV. Rozena (daughter of Benton John Miller and Venila E. Miller) was born on 13 Aug 1862 in Boone Co, WV; died on 25 Feb 1926 in Madison, Scott District, Boone Co, WV; was buried on 26 Feb 1926 in Green Bias Cemetery, Turtle Creek, Boone Co, WV. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Birth:
Wm. C. Millard's son's birth certificate lists him (Millard Sr.) as born in Elk River, WV; which is in Kanawha County and eastward, no part of which is in Cabell County. However, basically all of WV was originally Kanawha County. But if he was born in 1857, WV did not exist as a state until 1863.

Although Millard's death certificate gives his birth year as 1857, his son, Oliver Balaam's family Bible gives it as 1859.

Name:
William C. Millard Atkins went by Millard. He is said by his grandchildren to have had a nickname, "Bub", apparently after his grandfather, Robert Atkins. I've never heard why he has an additional middle initial "C".

William married Mary Jane Richmond. Mary was born est 1861 in VA; died est 1892 in WV. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Apparently, William H. Horton's middle initial stands for Holley, his mother's maiden name.

2nd husband of Octavia Egnor.

=====
November 3, 2008, received email re 1910 census data, ancestry.com and One World Tree data as follows:

1910 census from Curry, Putnam, West Virginia showing Mary and Andrew Jackson Atkins (both age 27) married with children of Nada age 2 and Lilly age 1 month. [note: This "Lilly" has to be Sally, born 1910 - addl note: Sally's 1909 birth record has been found, and her birth name was Cicly.]

ancestry.com for Mary Frances Horton with a date of death of 1928. The census
record was located in Mullins family tree.

One World Tree shows a Mary Horton (b 1900 d 1928) married to Andrew Adkins. Her father is shown as William Horton and mother as Octavia Egnor b abt 1866, d 1888.
=====
One LDS record shows a specific marriage date of October 12, 1882, Kanawha Co, WV, and shows William's middle initial as H. It also shows Octavia as Octaby.
====================

One record shows Lydia Woodrum as another wife of John Washington Egnor. Also she is shown as another wife of William Horton, husband of John Washington Egnor's daughter, Octavia Egnor; however, another John Washington Egnor is his son, Octavia's brother...a more probably match.

Carol Setliff's records show a Benjamin H. Plumley as born to Octavia and Plumley, but the H. seems to indicate he was son of Octavia and Horton, as there are three children listed with H. as middle name. Benjamin was listed as born May 1889; which conflicts with Willey H.'s birth year; however, Willey is also listed as born 1888. My personal records show a Balam Horton, which may be inaccurate or may be a nickname for Benjamin.

Birth:
Documentation on 1866 birth year not given, from a OneWorldTree family tree record.

Same for IGI record showing birth as 1857, Kanawha, VA and married to Octaby Smith. HOWEVER, the official record of his marriage to Octavia (as Octaby), gives him as 24 years old in October 1882. This would mean he was born most likely in 1858...or possibly in 1857. It gives him as married in Putnam County, VA and then living in Kanawha County, WV.

William married Octavia Egnor on 12 Oct 1882 in Kanawha Co, WV. Octavia (daughter of John Washington Egnor, Sr. and Lucinda Frances Plumley) was born in 1860 in VA; died after 1930 in WV. [Group Sheet]

Birth:
No record has been found for Octavia's birth as an Egnor or death with any last name ascribed to her spouses. Family lore has it that she was an Indian of Cherokee descent, but no further information was given. As she doesn't show in the 1860 census and then shows in the 1870 census as 14 years old, it is possible she was informally adopted into the family. Without U.S., VA/WV or Cherokee records showing this, it is not possible to determine.

---

If she was Cherokee, none of the ancestors shown here were actually hers...unless some of them were actually Cherokee.

---

Interestingly, her grandchildren through her daughter, Mary Frances Horton Atkins, never provided either a first or last name or a specific tribe for Octavia when asked, even though decades later it came to light that Mary's oldest daughter at least, did know her name and tribe. This would be congruent with her children instructing her grandchildren throughout their lives to not reveal this information to avoid persecution and possible relocation as an Indian.

---

Information previously unavailable: A granddaughter of Octavia whose mother grew up away from her siblings after her parents died in 1928 & 1931, said that DNA testing has been done by one of the granddaughter's siblings, and no Native American blood was indicated. Those grandchildren had also been told about being descended from Native Americans (as had the granddaughter's mother's siblings). If more information comes to light and is suitable for showing here, I will add it at that time.

Their Aegender notes: Aug 1999

Circumstantial evidence points to John Agner, Jr. and his wife Barbara being the parents of our Archibald Egnor!

Original findings concerning John Jr. are being re-examined. We now believe that the Johns in Rockbridge were confused and that John Jr. did go to Monroe County about 1823. Based on this and other circumstantial evidence, we are assuming that John Jr. is the father of Archibald and Elizabeth Egnor.

==========
Doug Couch notes 2008: Also given as "? Egnor" in One Family Tree family records. Gould family records show father of Archibald as Egnor with wife Mary. Apparently, there are serious errors with this lineage. Where shown as John Agner, wife Barbara, daughter Mary is born when he is 11, and dies when he is 98, an unlikely but not impossible relationship. The above comment from the Aegender family records-notes, about the "Johns in Rockbridge" being confused, is unclear. To keep children groups, and people given as spouses organized, Barbara is shown with her children, and Mary (Polly?) is shown with hers. The claim that John Agner (Jr.) and Barbara are the parents of Archibald does not agree with the family linkage given in the same database where the comment was entered. Therefore, it is here "assumed" that there were two spouses, and that Mary and/or Polly is the mother of Archibald...until better documentation can be found.

Doug Couch 2008 note: Ancestors and any collateral lines beyond Jeptha Massie 1779-1853 are from online family data of Paul E. McFerrin:
http://home.att.net/~paulmcferrin/geneology/fam00590.html

Neither a Lahoma nor Lany are listed as children of Jeptha Massie and Anna Meadows in the McFerrin data. Thus the McFerrin data is unclear whether correctly connected to Lany.

Ancestors given by McFerrin data:

1-Jeptha 1779
2-Jeptha Massie 1750 VA - 1855
2-Mary Sowards b.VA
3-John Massey 1720 MD - 1781 MD
3-Sarah Strong
4-James (Massey)
4-Rachel Jayne
5-Nicholas Massey, Jr. abt 1662 - 1724
5-Mary? abt 1666 - abt 1725
6-Nicholas Massey abt 1630 - abt 1693, md. MD
6-Anne b.MD

This general lineage is reiterated in the billmassey data at

Extremely lengthy researched lineage of the Massey family (not currently connected to this line) is found at:

This line goes back to the 10th century.

Died:
McFerrin data lists death 1853 in Lawrence Co, OH.

Jeptha married Anna MEADOWS on 21 Feb 1806 in Monroe Co, VA. Anna was born in 1788 in VA; died in 1860 in VA. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Doug notes 2008:

Anna Meadows given in Mullins records as born 27 Feb 1806, unlikely spouse relationship and impossible son relationship. 1850 census shows Jeptha Massie, wife Anna and son William, with Anna's estimated birth year as 1788, a much more likely date, used here.

Anna's children are given differntly in different records. Thomas, Lahoma/Lany, William, and Jeptha are common to the various records (except one doesn't show Lahoma/Lany). Her other children's birth years, extend her child-bearing years beyond what one would expect, and children cited as by Jeptha Jr's second wife overlap those years. They are included here for reference, but many may not be her children. Similarly, other records looked at do not list a second wife. For my ancestors, I will make an effort to obtain documentation of their relationships.

Died:
McFerrin data lists death place as Lawrence Co, OH.

Notes:

Married:
This date is for the Marriage Bond, presumably before the marriage, but could have been on that date as well.
