Family notes for Elisha HOPKINS and Phoebe ADKINS

Daniels p.59.

I′m pretty sceptical about the last child. If the dates are anything like correct, Phoebe would have been about 55 at Rebecca′s birth! [Webmaster]

Notes for Phoebe ADKINS

Phoebe was listed as a widow in the 1880 Pike County, KY, census records but she and Elisha were living in the house with Dorcas. I was told both of them are buried on top of a hill that separates Hopkins Creek and Greasy Creek in Pike County, KY. [55]
