Has any of this line done DNA testing? My husbands 3rd great was James Adams and according to census born in TN in 1799 (tennessee was not a state yet ) must have been the western frontier of NC. His DNA only matched one other Adams who was James Asa who lived in northern NC close to VA. So we are always looking for Adams connections in that area. Our James married a Catherine Thomas and went to MO in a wagon train in 1837. I have no idea who our James siblings might have been, or who his father was, so...just asking?
