Unmarried, no issue |
Notes for Caleb ADKINS Unmarried, therefore childless, and died intestate. See the Birmingham Adkins history page for the Indenture used to transfer his property from his heir to another in 1806. This indicates that Caleb owned land at Egork (today Edgiock) north of Inkberrow. [8]
The picture 'Mr T Adkins' is of a document address, below it is the letter, posted
to Thomas ADKINS by Thomas FISHER. It seems incredible today that one could address
a letter to an individual in just 'Birmingham'! [Webmaster]
Thomas FISHER's letter reads:
Dear Coz - Weston Sept 19 1801 My dear
Bro Mr Caleb Adkins is dead your Brother desires his love to you & hopes you
will come to his House tomorrow to attend your Unkle Calebs Funeral next
Monday afternoon. Death Reighns may wee his relations fly to Jesus who can
save from Eternal Death I am your Greeving Unkle Thos Fisher |
