John married a woman named Mary.They are believed to have had seven children...We only have information concerning one of their children, a son named John Deskins JR. In 1775, Daniel Boone was hired by Colonel Richard Henderson, Caroling judge, to take men and cut a 300 mile trail through the wilderness of the Cumberland Gap to the Kentucky River. This trail from eastern Virginia to Kentucky became known as the Wilderness Road. It is believed or it has been told(and this information comes from Mattie Delores Deskins)the Deskins came to America from France in the late 1700's. It is believed that the Deskins traveledon the Wilderness Road, through the Cumberland Gap, to the northern parts of Kentucky. Our descendants have passed the following story about the Deskins name form one generation to the next: In the early 1800's, a man was riding along a trail throught the forest. He suddenly saw an object lying in the path. As he drew closer, he heard the cries of a baby. He got off his horse and walked toward the child. He found a baby boy wrapped in a "deerskin" cloth. The child was a Indian boy. The man had no choice but to take the baby home withhim. He named the Indian child John Deerskin and raised him with his other children. When John Deerskin grew older, he married a white woman and they had seven boys. The name Deskins is believed to have derived from the name Deerskin: After removing one "e" and adding an "s" to the end, Deerskin becomes Deskins. This is how the Deskins name originated. All of these events took place inTazwell county, Tazwell, Virginia per Sandra Deskin Raffield's Research.
