I will try to find Samuel Adams in my lineage. Most of my father's family (and that's where I'm told the connection to John Quincy Adams comes from) is from Arkansas. I think I also heard that Daniel Boone was related. And that name is interesting since my dad's family's name is Boen....pretty close to Boone, actually. I really don't have other information for you since I'm stuck with finding out where my link is. I'll keep looking.I'm going to Boston for 3 days in September and I was hoping I could track my heritage a little. We'll see, I guess!
