"Franklin Asbury Elkins, son of William H. & Margaret (Cavender) Elkins, and a 
direct descendent of the first pioneer settlers in Jackson/Brown Counties, 
Indiana.  Franklin was born August 26, 1855 (death cert.) in Indiana  
(probably near Cortland).  He was with his family in the 1860 census in 
Jackson Co., IN.  In 1870, he was still with his family only in Putman Co., 
IN. near the Waveland area.  In the early 1880's he must have returned to 
Jackson Co., IN.;  There he married his first wife, Mollie H. Robertson on 
September 20, 1882 (marriage record).  They had four children:  Howard 
Marshall Elkins, Lelia Isabelle Elkins, Ida Leoda Elkins, and Earl Elkins."
