I am searching for the family of Alex Wadkins. Alex was born 2/17/1884 and passed away in 1956. I believe he was born in Obion County Tennessee (possibly Kenton). Nothing is known about Alex. I suspect Alex was bound out. He wa an orphan and never knew who his parents were. He worked on a farm until he ran away in his early teens. I'm not sure if Wadkins is his birth name or given by the family he lived with.
