Place and date of marriage unk. There is no birth record on Isom per census b. 1861 KY Isom seems to have had a second wife per census and death record. prior to 1920 he is with Lucinda Riddle and in 1920-1930 his wife is Sally. I don't know if Lucinda died or they were divorced. Can't find death record on her Per County death record: Isom Adkins b. Nov, 4 1861 Elliott, KY, d. June 12, 1940. Spouse Sally Parents: Brock Atkins and Martha Atkins. I believe the informant had Isom's mother wrong. All evidence shows Owen and Isom were brothers. Both the sons of Brock Adkins and Sarah Ison. NOTE: 1870 Census for Braxton and Sarah Adkins - Lists children Owen b. 1855 and Howard I. matches to the same birth date as Isom 1861-1862. There is no Isom listed but Isom could be Howard's middle name File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/nc/wilkes/vitals/deaths/riddle5ndt.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/ncfiles/ File size: 1.6 Kb
