I am searching for the parents of Marion Atkinson, b. 1823, d. Aug. 1864 and his wife Perlina Crow, b. 3/19/1827, d. 3/12/1912. They were married 1/3/1847. Children's names were: William, b. 1847, James,b. 1850. Sarah,b. 1853, Amanda, b. 1855, Thomas J.,b. 1858, and Jeptha Marion, b. 7/11/1864,d. 12/23/1951. Marion shows up on the 1860 census for Franklin County, but he doesn't appear on earlier ones even though he bought 100 acres of land from Willima T. Crow in July of 1850. If anyone has any information on this family, please contact me and I will share the information I have also. Thank you.
