1771-1772 Montgomery Co., Virginia, Elijah Adkins born to Parker Adkins.
February 28, 1790 Montgomery Co., Virginia Elijah Adkins married Nancy Hunter.
June 21, 1792 Montgomery Co., Virginia Tax List, Elijah Adkins shown as; “not above 21 years of age.”
April 2, 1799 Montgomery Co., Virginia Tax List, Elijah Adkins shown as; “Male above 16.” with “3 Horses.”
December 6, 1800 Montgomery Co., Virginia, shows; “Abijah Adkins,”
I believe this to be our Elijah, mispelled, stood surety for Susannah Hunter, Nancy’s Sister.
1831 Anderson Co., Tennessee, Elijah Adkins and Son-in-Law David Wallace made a purchase.
March 1848 Anderson Co., Tennessee, Elijah Adkins Jr. deceased, his Brother-in-Law James Wallace, is administrator for Elijah Jr. heirs.
Children of Elijah and Nancy Hunter;
Elijah Adkins Jr. born 1791 VA, died before 1850 TN
Elizabeth Adkins born 1793 VA, died August 13, 1840 TN
This death date for Elizabeth, some people put with Millie, who is living with her Son John in Anderson Co., TN in the 1850 census.
Levi Adkins born February 20, 1794 VA, died March 30, 1877 TN
Amelia “Miilie” Adkins born March 1, 1798 VA, died after 1850 TN
Rachel Adkins born September 23, 1799 VA, died April 4, 1866 TN
Eliza Celia Adkins born 1801 TN, died about 1834
We believe the Elijah Adkins – White Wing information to be in error.
We also believe Elijah, Son of Parker Adkins was named after Elijah Cornstalk that died very young.
I hope this helps, Ethel
