We have corresponded indirectly by way of Hannah Spalding. I have Adams ancestors who came to Nelson County KY, as part of a migration of MD Catholic families, likely from the northern VA/MD area. I have one Adams connection (named George) who appears to have had dealings in Fauquier County, VA, but doesn't appear to have lived there. Our earliest Adams ancestor is one named Richard, who had a son named Richard, who was father of Benjamin, my 4th gr grandfather. We (meaning my Adams cousin Chris Hood and I) can't get a county of origin in MD for our family. We sure don't want to sponge but we've been on this one for about 10 years and we're just stuck!
