Surnames: Adams Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CI.2ADEB/9167 Message Board Post: I am trying to find the ancestor's of Henry Adams. My family tree has been traced back to him and then stops. My tree goes from Henry 1726-1785 to Robert Adams 1753-1810/Thomas Adams 1798-1851/Richard Adams 1819-1890/Ephriam Adams 1844-1911/John Quincy Adams 1867-1936/Mona Eudora Adams Clark 1912-1955/Mona Jean Clark Shiock 1936-2003/to me Andrea Anthony b.1957. Henry was a fifer in the Revolutionary War in Capt. John Wagner's Company of the 4th Battalion, Northumberland County Militia, PA. His son, Robert, served in the 8th PA Regiment, Continental Line. From RootsWeb.com it lists this military service number: BET.Jul 1776-Apr 1779 My records indicate they were both born near Boston, MA and came to PA via Rhode Island, where they visited a relative, General Nathaniel Greene, to fight Indians in Eastern PA. They settled in Huntingdon County. The information I have states that Henry died in Indiana or Westmoreland County, PA and Robert died in Westmoreland County, PA. Robert also served as Westmoreland County Justice of the Peace in 1777. Henry was married in 1750 but I don't have her name. All records seem to stop at Henry Adams. Any help in finding this Henry Adam's ancestors would be greatly appreciated.
