Author: softail96 Surnames: Adams Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.adams/6950.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I too would like more information on this Edward Adams who was living in Parkman, Piscataquis, Maine during the 1850 federal census. Wife Chloe Jane (Gilbert), children listed then were: Jane S., Abel A., John, Jessee, Alonzo. Other children not in the 1850 census were: Charles B., Edward Jr., Rebecca R., Martha G., Phebe R., Gilbert C., Elvenacen(?). I don't find information on Edward after 1850 and apparently most of the family moved westward, many to Illinois in the early 1850's. My 2nd great grandfather was Jessee who is listed in the 1870 federal census, married with childen, in Canton township, Buffalo county, Wisonsin.
