"I wrote FOOTPRINTS WEST in 1990 which included the Masters, Meeker, Mayo, Wheeler and Tomlinson families. They are the ancestors of my mother, Florence Elva (Masters) Fenn. Since the book was published, addititonal information has been obtained on the early ancestors as well as additions to the family. I have updated and corrected the family information. The Mayo family has had two generations removed due to lack of evidence. Those generations were contributed fot FOOTPRINTS WEST and I did not research their validity. The Masters and Wheeler families have had generations added. All of the other families have more recent information on living members of the families."--Preface.
The immigrant ancestor of this family, Thomas Atkinson (ca. 1725-1784), died in Washington Co., Pa. The earliest document shows him living in March 1767 as a tenant in possession of land in Gunpowder Manor, Baltimore Co., Md. He left Baltimore County and settled in 1773 on Wheeling Creek (then Ohio Co., Va.), which became Washington Co., Pa. in 1781. He had nine children. The oldest child was possibly born in Ireland, the next at sea and the rest in Baltimore Co., Maryland. Descendants live in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Missouri, Kentucky and elsewhere. Includes other immigrant ancestors, who came from England and Germany settling in Virginia, Missouri and elsewhere in the early 1700s.
