Paternal Line

I am trying to find sources for the wife of my fifth great grandfather, Robert Hunter of Giles County, Virginia. I have several names for her, but feel a mistake has been made with the name of Atkins. I feel her name is Mildred (Millie) Lewis, but cannot find any records for her birth, marriage or death. Thank you.
