General Mason Adkins family tree database
I have not been able to connect General Mason Adkins to any family in Wayne County, West Virginia. By all accounts, he was born and raised there.
Yet, prior to his marriage to Telitha Donahoo on Oct 22, 1898 in Wayne Co., WV, I've never been able to locate any record of him anywhere, let alone Wayne Co., WV.
Telitha Frances Donahoo was born Jan 03, 1875 in Wayne Co., WV to Joseph V. Donahoo and Julia Ann Hobbs. She died Jun 13, 1942 in Wayne Co., WV. Telitha is buried in F.M. Ross Cemetery, Camp Creek, East Lynn, Wayne County, West Virginia.
General can be found in the following census records:
|
1900 Wayne County, West Virginia
|
|
1910 Lincoln County, West Virginia
|
|
1920 Wayne County, West Virginia
|
|
1930 Wayne County, West Virginia
|
I have found no record of General's death. I've searched West Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio. The latest I can place him is October 17, 1932. He was listed as an informant on the death certificate of his son, Ottie. Telitha's June 26, 1942 obituary mentions that General "had been dead several years" before her death.
General and Telitha had the following children:
