I am researching the ATKINS surname and their descendants as well as gathering information on other connected ancestral links.
My information starts with Seth ATKINS b. England d. Middleton, Connecticut. (This is the only information I have on him at the present time).

Seth had a son, Seth ATKINS b.1784 CT. d. 1858; m. Eunice ? b.1792 CT. d. 1863. They had three children, John 1816-1895, Seth 1821-1888, and Harriet 1929-.
John married Amanda HALL 1816-1881. They had four children, Martha 1836-1905, George 1840-1899, Cecelia 1843-1917, and William 1854-1914.

Martha married Abram VOSSBURG 1816-1881. They had five children.
George married Lydia LANGWORTHY 1840-1882. They had four children. (George's second wife was Julia (Pary) RUPERT).
Seth married Jane PALMER 1820-1857. They had a son. (Seth's second wife was Mary WICKHAM 1838-1906). They had four children.
Harriet married Nathaniel KNOX 1825-. They had two children.

I am concentrating my research at present time to the siblings of George Franklin and Lydia ATKINS. They are as follows:
1. John ATKINS b.1863 Warren County, IL.
2. Irving Jackson ATKINS b.1866 Warren County, IL. d.1928 Waldo, AK.
3. Charles ATKINS b.1868 Warren County, IL.
4. Nettie ATKINS b.1872 MO.

FACTS:
1. John was last reported on 1880 census Branch, Marion County, KS. He was 17 yrs. old, living at home with George and Lydia. No trace of him after that.
2. Irving Jackson (I.J.) married Lila MORELAND b.1889 Bald Knob, AK. d.1968 Texarkana, TX.
3. Charles married Betty ? b.1869 MO.
4. Nettie was last reported on1880 census Branch, Marion County, KS. She was 8 yrs. old living at home with George and Lydia.
No trace of her after that.

Would be very interested in any information at all about this family, especially the mysteries of what happened to John and Nettie, and the maiden name of Charles' wife Betty. Any information on any of the above ATKINS line will be greatly appreciated.

In addition to the ATKINS family, I am researching the SCHULTE family and their associated links.

My information on the SCHULTE family starts with two brothers,
Henry C. SCHULTE and Carl SCHULTE. They were born in Halzhausen, Germany. Henry was born in Jan, 1849 and Carl was born Sept. 1850. They migrated to the U.S. between 1871-1881 and settled in Chariton County, MO. I have not found any information on the parents of Henry and Carl.

Henry married Emma Marie MEYER b. Aug. 1872 Germany. They had three daughters, Lena, Leta, and Minnie.

Carl married Wilhemina JOHANNING b.1861 Germany. They had four children,Charles, Rudolph William, Christina, and Emma.

Any information along these lines will also be greatly appreciated.
