I have no ideal if I’m related to any of you or not to be honest but some of the information seems familiar and some of it….well, to be honest…I’ve never heard before. My grandfather’s name is Ben Adkins. He died on March 3rd, 1970. He was married to Ethel Adkins (I don’t know her maiden name). She was his second wife. Between the 2 wives there was a total of 19 children. Sorry but I don’t know the first wife’s name. I do know that my great grandmother (grandpa Ben’s mother was an Indian named Mary also called Marie). My family is from all over Kentucky but they haven’t been able to tell me very much. They said that they didn’t know what my great grandmother’s Indian name was. I was told that we have Blackfoot and Cherokee Indian Heritage in our family but other than that no one knows. I’ve been trying desperately for almost 25 years to learn about my family’s heritage so that I can pass it on to my daughter. I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer. Thanks!
