Was a veteran of War of 1812. 1817 moved to Clinton Co. His father Thomas Nutter Adams died 1827 near Centerville, Ohio in Wayne Township. His mother died at 82. Thomas Nutter Adams moved to Sabina, Ohio 1827. Both parents lived on Urbana Road, Centerville. Same source: T.S. Adams, Mt Sterlin Illinois, formerly of Clinton County, Ohio. Mentions his mother-in-law at Mrs. Zada Birdsall. (Source: History of Clinton County, Ohio, 1882) Thomas N. Adams first marriage's children were Absalom, Henry and Mrs. Isaac Pavey. Second wife's children were Thomas N, John, Charles, William, Henry Long, and others. Thomas N, his son, claimed to be born 10 Sep 1772, but his age in Issac Pavey's bible, seen at Manlif Adams' house, gives his birth on 4 Jun 1783. Died Sept 1876 (says 1875 elsewhere) (104 years old!, but not impossible if father lived to be 107 as other sources indicate). (These dates ended up not very clear in my notes, so am not absolutely sure I got them right, will check another time, though I did see in another source were he lived to be 104). Absalom Adams lived close to Urbana Rd. He was father of Edward and John Admas (both dead before 1882). Edward married Leah, sister of Jessie McKay. He owned 151 1/2 acres. Henry Adams, brother of Absalom, lived adjoining him. They were own brothers to Isaac Pavey's first wife. Edward Adams was a Justice of Peace in 1828. Edward Adams owned 40 acres, John Adams 69 1/2 acres, Peter Adams 100 acres, Absalom Adams, 151 1/2 acres. Another pages shows Absalom sold to Edward Adams 40 acres in 1825.
