William Jessie Wilkins
Posted by Mr. Jeri L. Wilkins <sbrown@pcnow.net> on Fri, 09 Aug 2002, in response to Wilkins Family in Ga., posted by Susan Brown Cofield on Thu, 08 Aug 2002
Mrs. Susan Brown Cofield:My grandfathers name was William Jessie Wilkins and he was from around the Cobb County, Pauling County, Polk County GA. The three counties that i have named my grandfather owned land in each county and I have the tax receips. For the years of 1890, 1892, 1893, 1894, 1895, 1896 for Cobb County, GA. For the years of 1889, 1888, 1895, 1894 for Pauling County, GA. For the years 1878, 1879 for Polk County, GA. I am not sure if Grandpa Wilkins owned land in Laurens County, GA. I don't think Grampa Wilkins was old enough to go to the Civil War. I think he would have been about 9 years old. My Great Grandfathers name was Jessie Wilkins and he married Sara Ann Collins and if I remember my Uncle telling me about Great Grampa going to the Civil War and coming home with one leg and Great Grandma run him off. Great Grampa was born in 1822 and Great Grandma was born in 1826. This is as far back as I can get on my Great Grandparents and I wish I could find more about them. I hope this has helped you out.
Gods Blessings, Jeri L. Wilkins
