I am also researching my Adkins family roots ( in Tennessee).I have a Silas Adkins in Tenn prior to 1844, his son, Benjamin F Adkins (1844 to 1919), married Susan (possibly Susannah) Farmer, their children were; Sebasatine Adkins (born 1880 Cumberland County, Tenn died 1974, Moorpark California), Harry Adkins, Charles Adkins, Azzie Adkins and Della Akins, and Blain Adkins.I found a Silas Adkins on the 1850 Tennesse Census that did have a son named Benjamin F. Adkins, and the dates are correct, but they listedSilas Adkins' wife as Susa (probably a misspell).Since census records can be misleading, I sent to the Tennesse State Archives for a copy of Benjamin F. Adkins death certificate, and that document said his mother's name was Annie (Silas's wife).If anyone has any connection to any of these names.e-mail me at [email protected]
