Surnames: Adams Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CI.2ADEB/9078.1.1 Message Board Post: I am unfamiliar with this Adams man. Two sons of Augustus Adams were Richard A. Adams and Joseph A. M. Adams. Richard was born in 1855 and Joseph in 1858. Both are buried in Greenwood Cemetery. It sounds like your William Adams was of the same generation, but I have no knowledge of him.
