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]

| 16. | Beulah (14.William3, 5.William2, 1.Rial1) and died. Notes:
Family recollection gives that Mary and Willie had a sister (or perhaps half-sister) named Beulah. No documents or futher information about her has been found.

| 17. | William Horton (14.William3, 5.William2, 1.Rial1) was born in 1889; died on 26 May 1958 in Huntington, Cabell Co, WV; was buried on 28 May 1958 in Egnor Cemetery, Griffithsville, Lincoln Co, WV. Notes:
Death record of Willie Horton gives his and his father's surname as Harten, with mother Octavia Egnor. Carol Setliff's records report Willey H. Plumley as born to Octavia and husband Plumley; however the H. indicates he was a Horton.
If the death year for Octavia is correct at 1888, then Willie has a different mother, and is half-brother to Mary Frances. Similar may be true of Beulah ___?...unknown. Formerly listed brother Balam ___? has since been found to be Oliver Balaam "O.B." Atkins, brother of Andrew Jackson Atkins and brother-in-law to Willie through his sister, Mary Frances Horton.
Birth:
