I am a descendant of Daniel Hankins Jr., born 30 Jan 1805 Va, married Ann Collier in Lawrence Co Ohio. She was born in 1805 Va. Bible records have Daniel’s death as 2 Nov 1871. ( perhaps Decatur Co Iowa) I have bible records of Daniel Hankins m Ann Collier, which list their ten children.

I want to submit the information to your dept. I’ve found in searching LDS records many people have been entering the wrong family lines as they intertwined a great deal. Of these ten children, they are as follows: Bible Records data:

  1. 1. Roland Hankins b 15 Dec 1825
  2. 2. Rebecca Hankins b 25 Jan 1827
  3. 3. Sarah Jane Hankins b7 Oct 1831

This is just a sketch of Daniel Hankins Jr.’s lineage, hoping it will help others find our tree. Please include it somewhere in your Ohio history records, as a distant cousin Everett Paul Hankins added some history to your records.

Another cousin of Hay Springs, Neb, Clarabell Hunter, had done some charting and, going over her notes, had many names and lines wrong. Both she and Paul have passed away.

Any family can contact me at [email protected] or call 530 868 5555, or cell 530 531 5515. I plan on completing work for LDS records on all lines of Hankins as I have it.

note: Elisabeth Hepler m William Davidson, and later m, Joseph Hankins, Elisabeth Davison, lived in Mechanicsburg, Ind, in 1872. I have an old letter from her from that time; Joseph is still living.

They had children on the 1850 Census Ellen age 17, Arrlempa age 11, Elizabeth age 9. Frances A., age 7, and Joseph, age 5. Some notes indicate sister m John Hamm, Ellen m Hurling (could have been a Davison), and Christina m Hurling, bro., no issue. This is unclear to me have old letters from some of them spelling could be Kisling/Hurling. I am tracking Joseph and Elisabeth’s children. Also, Joseph’s first wife m Agnes Collier, 18 Dec 1818. Lawrence Co Ohio, I don’t know if they had any children. Please let me know or forward any queries to me. Thank you so much. Georgie Ann Hankins Waddell


I descend from Roland m Mary E. Davison
Melinda Ann m Wm J. Beavers
Lenna Jane Beavers m Ernest Frank Hankins
George Geary Hankins m Viola Jensen
Georgie Ann Hankins
and I descend from Roland’s brother, Amos Hankins m Sarah E. Beavers
Ernest Frank Hankins m Lenna Jane Beavers
George Geary Hankins m Viola Jensen
Georgie Ann Hankins

I hope this helps you sort out my tree a little bit. Anyone who plans on summiting my notes above to the LDS church, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me first, so confirmation of facts is done between us. As I said, several entries are made wrong in the church temple, and I need to get my records into the church so all of you can find your lineage.

I have Daniel Hankins m Ann Collier’s Bible records. Please make these corrections when transferring my data into your records. Thanks, Georgie Ann Hankins Waddell

QUERY: Does anyone know what became of Joseph Hankins’ first wife, Agnes Collier? They were married on 18 Dec 1818 in Lawrence County, Ohio. Who were her parents? Did they have any children? Please contact me, Georgie Ann, if anyone is interested in our family. Thanks.

NOTE: I received this from Georgie in 2011. I am posting it online just as it was sent to me-mm.
