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]

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]
