Martha CARDWELL, dtr of John and Kezia Lowe CARDWELL, married Thomas
EPPERSON July 28, 1778 in Charlotte Co., VA. He died app Oct 7, 1805 in
Charlotte Co., VA and mentions no children in his will. In his will he
does mention his two newphews - Thomas ATKINS and William ATKINS, sons of
his sister and brother-in-law William and Anne EPPERSON ATKINS. About
1812, Thomas ATKINS sells his inherited land and leaves Charlotte Co. I
have not been able to trace him after that. It is possible that he went to
live near other CARDWELL relatives.

Would you CARDWELL researchers keep an eye out for a Thomas ATKINS while
you are researching your CARDWELLs?
Thanks very much,
