About William Henry Adkins
https://charlescity.org/natives/topic-chiefs.php
Chief William Henry Adkins (09 DEC 1850 – 30 JUN 1921) led the movement for organization of a tribe in 1901 and served as the first chief. The movement for organization grew out of a visit by Smithsonian ethnographer James Mooney. In the early 1900s Mooney visited and studied several groups in Virginia who identified themselves as Indians but were not living on the surviving tribal reservations. Mooney urged these groups to organize formally and to establish tribal rolls. Photo courtesy National Anthropological Archives, Smithsonian Institution, negative no. 852.
