He is buried at Sweetwater Cemetary. As you know Adams was a common name in the Augusta /Edgefield area, and censuses back to early 1880's show a lot of us. Pickens was a very common name as well in that part of SC, since he was a revolutonary war hero.. Most of my clan stayed in the Augusta area or moved upstate towards the NC border. Hope this helps. where did your husband's kin settle down? Jim Adams
