Pickens Genealogy
These Records are from the Old Parish Records in Scotland.
These are all PICKENS'S (except spouces, whose last names are given)
The second generation marked "2" (Johnne, Andrew, Peter, and Robert) have no parents listed for them,
so they may be siblings or they may be cousins.
From the third generation "3" on, it is accurate.
Robert Andrew Pickens and Esther Jane Benoit are on this page.
