THE ELKINS FAMILY.
From ancient Elkins deeds, in possession of Mr. Charles G. Durgin, we infer that
1. JONATHANI, of Hampton, 1701, may have been an early ancestor of the Sanbornton Elkinses ; that two of his sons,
2, 3. MOSES? (Dea.) and OBADIAU2 were in Kingston, 1749, and that the latter was probably the father of
4. PETER3, who first settled in Kingston, then Hawke, and was said to be of that town (Hawke, now Danville), Feb. 15, 1783, when he received land, by deed, from Abraham Darling, in Lots 73 and 74, 2d Div. This establishes the time of his first settlement near the Tin Corner, place of late owned by James Morrison, where he kept a store. He was appointed " lient .- colonel of an Alarm Co." in this
