Here’s a photo of Billy Adkins, my genealogy mentor, at the old Jenks Thompson/Dave Thompson homestead. Jenks, great-grandfather to Billy, once lived at this site; later, Dave (son of Jenks, nicknamed “Cat Eye Dave”) lived here. Jenks Knob/Cat Eye Dave Knob is located between Thompson Branch and Curry Branch of Harts Creek in Lincoln County, WV. Photo by Bob Leete. Spring 1994.
