In Coleman County I have found an H.D. Elkins and a Roy Elkins having children during the years of 1926- 1927. I am looking for a Dorothy Elkins that would have been born in these years. Does anyone have any information on these familes?

Carolyn ...

Even though I am not part of the Elkin(s) family, I have done quite a bit of research on this Elkin(s) family in Coleman County and before. H. D. of the time period 1926 - 1927 is Harmon David Elkin, Jr., born 1877. There was also a Roy Elkins, born 1894, the son of Jessie Monroe Elkin, born 1869, who was a brother of H. D., Jr.

The only Dorothy Elkin(s) that I know of, is now Dorothy McDonald, , Coleman, Texas . This Dorothy Elkin was born in the late 1930's. Dorothy's grandfather was Taylor Elkin, born 1871, another brother of H. D., Jr.

Hope this is of some value to you.

I called Dorothy and left a message with a co-worker for her to call me back but have not heard back from her.

Do you have anything you could send me that would show before Harmon David and Mary Borders Elkin? If so, please e-mail me. I have after them if you are needing any of it.

Thanks so much,
Rhonda

Ralph, I have a list of H.D. and Mary Jane Elkin children with birthdays. Harmon Davis Elkin/s served in the Civil War. He was a member of the Williamson County Grays. I have found them in the census in 1870 in Williamson County and 1870 in Coleman County. They are buried in Glen Cove Cemetery in Coleman County. If you have more information, I would appreciate it and will share what I have with you.

i need any info on harmon david elkin he was my great grandfather.

Noel, I have quite a lot of information on the Coleman County Elkins family. My husband was John Thomas Elkins son who was the son of Harmon Davis Elkins. Mr. Elkins also had a son Harmon D.Is this your grandfather or is it the older gentelmen. Let me know what you want to know. I will be happy to share what I have.

My father was Lowell C. Elkins(2/05/1916-3/17/1984), his father was John Thomas Elkins(10/07/1888-06/21/1957), his father was William Jackson Elkins(04/18/1866-1949) and his father (we think) was Harmon David Elkins. I should also have a great-uncle Noel Vietch Elkins 5/21/1900-?

Because there are so many William Elkins, I hesitate to say for sure that Harmon David is my great-great grandfather, but it strongly looks that way. I have some information on the marriages of William Jackson Elkins (Mildred Cora Sanders 5/17/1868-1948,married 08/11/1887) and Noel Veitch Elkins (Mary Elizabeth Sumner) 10/13/1929. John Thomas Elkins was married to Maude Bartholomew 12/23/1910, she later died in the flu epidemic of 1918 and he remarried Dosha Elkins.

I am rather new at researching, I thank everyone in advance for their help.


Any information on the family is welcome

Noel, are you the son/grandson of Noel Veitch Elkins? Noel was the brother of my grandfather John Thomas and I would be interested in hearing from you. Thanks, Melinda
