I have found this on your posting.

Parker Adkins, b. ca 1763 Franklin Co. Va.; d. Raleigh Co. Va. (W.Va.) Nov 5, 1857; s/o Jacob & Judah; m. Montgomery Co. Va. Mar. 1, 1792 Mary LeFon (LeFord); b. ca 1765.

Parker is some records of the revolutionary War and has been confused with his uncle numerous times. Before or just after 1800 Parker moved to what would become West Virginia in 1863. At the time of the move it was still Montgomery Co. becoming Giles 1806, Fayette Raleigh Co. W.Va. deed bk B pg 20; his death record proves his parentage, date and place of birth.

Children of Parker and Mary (Lefon/ Leford) Adkins:

1- Govey (Grover Adkinsb. ca 1799.
2- Margaret Adkins, b. 1801.
3- Rebecca Adkins, b. 1810.
4- Larkin Adkins, b. 1803.
5- Robert Adkins, b. 1810.
6- Elizabeth Adkins, b. ca 1807.
7- Barbara Adkins, b. 1814.
8- Rickells Adkins, b. 1815.
9- Nancy Adkins, b. 1816.
10- ANDERSON ADKINS, b. 1819.
11- Mary Adkins, b. 1808; m. Sherrod Adkins.

The number of each of the above were assigned long before birth dates were all located so that some are out of order.

Parker m. (2) Mary Willis; little is known of Mary; she was living in Lincoln Co. W.Va. in 1870.

Children of Parker and Mary (Willis) Adkins:

1- Lauden m. Liz Holton.
2- James "Jim" m. Sarah Willis, m.(2) Ellen Rose.
3- Elizabeth m. Harvey Smith. Elizabeth b. Raleigh Co. Dec. 20, 1853.
4- Sarah m. Sylvester Plumley.
5- Cumberland b. July 9, 1859.

-------------------------------
ANDERSON ADKINS b. ca 1819 s/o Parker and Mary (Lefon/Leford); m. Aug. 5, 1842ANN KIOUS.

Children unknown.

This is all I found the SOURCE: Adkins Land of York Surrey County, England to Beech Fork Wayne County, West Virginia pgs 739-740-& 742.

I hope this helps you .
