Author: margerice1 Surnames: Adams, Sowers Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.adams/15233/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I have an original small snapshot photograph on heavy cardboard, of "Pearl Adams Sowers", which I'd like to get back to descendants or family members. Photo was taken in about 1900, and she looks to be about 14. I found Pearl in the 1900 census for Eldorado, McDonough Co., IL, with birthdate March 1885, daughter of John W. and Mary J. Adams. Ancestry Family Data Collection shows that Madellon Pearl Adams married Guy Ernest Sowers. Birth information shows Madellon was born 3 March 1885 in McDonough Co., IL and died there 7 Mar 1920. Guy was born 1 Nov 1886 Ray Co., IL and died 3 Jun 1953 McDonough Co. In 1910 and 1920, Guy and Pearl lived McDonough Co.
