Ronnie Adkins book mentions the following children:
CHILDREN OF SHERROD AND SARAH (LUCAS) ADKINS :
Christena m(2) 11 Feb. 1798 in Montgomery Co. Sherrod B. Adkins s/o Parker and Mary (# 127), her 1st cousin. Between 1810-1815 Christena and Sherrod joined their brothers and sisters in the Beech Fork area of Cabell (Wayne) Co. Va. (W.Va.) and made their home near Christen's brother Sherrod.
Christena d 1822 and is buried at the old family cemetery near the mouth of Bowen's Creek. Sherrod B. has often been confused with Christena's brother, Sherrod (136) they were near the same age, 1st cousins, lived in close prosimity and died within five years of each other making it extremely easy for older family members and researchers to mistake them. Some facts that may help others to discern between the two follow:
Sherrod s/o Mary had d also in 1856 so that Sherrod B's death in 1859 with certificate stating he was son of Parker and Mary, will leaving one dollar to each of Archibald's children and his being buried beside of Christena clearly proves the distinction between the two.
