I think? I have just upgrade to the FTM program I hate it, and I have to relay the whole thing from memory so here goes. Nancy Holloway Adams was the Great Aunt of my father. Nancy married a James Adams born 1867 in Missouri was the son of Daniel & Mary Adams both born about 1830 and said to be from TN on census data. This the Nancy you mention. I think may connect to mine a daughter or a likely a niece? I had been trying to run these folks down and sort them out last night. To see this group today on a post was a delight to see. I hope we can help each other work our way through with running them down. My father had mentioned Cape Gerardo Mo as having kin once there but I haven't found them it may work out to be these folks. Aimee it is probably true your group had issues over the war, but what family didn't I suppose. Half of my Holloways went north to Iowa, the rest south to Fulton County, Arkansas. Some fight in the CSA others naming their sons Sherman and Grant. Good clued of disagreement. If they weren't literate and separated by very many miles they would fall apart naturally a well. My Adams group fell away from the my family collective memory. I am trying to pull them back. I would add a genreport but I can figure out this stupid changes to FTM made yet. I will continue lurking in the hope of further leads but I think we will connect. I think age wise my Daniel Adams would be son or Nephew to the William you list. My Daniel has a son William. may also be a clue. See below. Thanks for posting.
