In the 1810 census William was in Floyd, Floyd, Kentucky, United States.[1] In the 1820 census William was in Floyd, Kentucky, United States.[2]He died about 1830 in Floyd County, Kentucky, United States.
From the comments on this profile he was the son of William, and was not Coonie Bill who was the son of Ambrose.
William was the paternal fifth great-grandfather of Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gayle.
Why does he have Martha Winbush attached as a daughter? Did not find any sources for her. I did some checking on her. Her fathers name is Samuel Winbush.

Could someone familiar with this profile and that of the parents please clean this up, or reverse the edits if should not have been made.
There’s been no input from profile managers, the project, or Mullins descendants about resolving the issue with Mullins-340 which represents the best detailed information as the son of William Mullins-570. I added issues under the Research Notes on Mullins-340 over a year ago. Even if this gets resolved, there’s erroneous connections and information on Mullins-570’s ancestors.
There is a Booker Mullins who married Judith Stanley on 12 May 1803 in Franklin, Virginia. (Source: Dodd, Jordan R., et al.. Early American Marriages: Virginia to 1850. Bountiful, UT, USA: Precision Indexing Publishers)
Find-a-Grave has a memorial for a William "Coonie Bill" Mullins born 1766 VA, died 1850 Floyd, KY, married to Rutha Foster: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/134991332/william-mullins
All that said, my guess is two men have been conflated.

I am going to reach out to other contacts to see if anyone has a William who died in 1830.
Booker was “Little Book” Mullins, my 3rd great grandfather and he died in Franklin County, Va. in 1867. He was the son of William Mullins Jr. and Jane Stanley. I have sources for Booker and many of his descendants.
This William is the s/o Ambrose Mullins and "unknown".
These people keep getting merged and they aren't the right people.
I'm about ready to give up ....
William Mullins Sr.aka Coonie Bill b. ca 1776 Virginia - d. late 1856 or early 1857 KY md Rutha Foster Man oh man these people are getting SO messed up!!!
