Surnames: Adams Kitchens Ouzts Powell Evans Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CI.2ADEB/2900.5254 Message Board Post: I am trying to trace my husbands line of Adams from Edgefield South Carolina. He has James Pinkney Adams Sr. b. Jun 11 1876 d Sep 4 1938 . James' father is Pickens Butler Adams b. abt. 1830 . Pickens' father is John Quincy Adams b. abt 1809. They seem to be living around the meeting street community. My husband got this information from a Mr. Timmerman who was tracing history in the Edgefield area. The information lead to Frances E. Ouzts Cumbee Adams who was married to Pickens. Since you had similar names in your message post I thought some of your people might be brothers to mine. If you can shed some light on our dark trail I would be very grateful. I just don't know where to search anymore. Tamara
