Thomas,
Thank you for responding to my post.
I love my Adkins family. Trying to put the puzzles together is, indeed, a challenge.
This is not coming from the top of my head, but I believe that John Atkins wife, Elizabeth, may have been a Hughs/Hughes. I have tried fitting her with the Woodsons, Bates, Tarletons, Flemings, Jordans, etc. What stands out in my mind is John being on a committee that gave the O.K. for cousins to marry. Thomas Atkins and Sarah Hughs could have been cousins. There are so many records where the Hughs and Atkins are together. Of course, also with the other surnames mentioned. I haven't had my Adkins files out for a while, as I have been working on my husband's McManus family. Talk about a toughie. No Quaker records to help.
I would be glad to hear from you and what your thoughts are on this Atkins family.
~Linda
