Surnames: Adams Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CI.2ADEB/9454 Message Board Post: I'm trying to find out what happened to some great great uncles. Their names were: Robert Adams (a comedian who shot himself in the eye) who had 3 children (Deidre, Denise and Stuart), and John Percy (Jack) Adams, a sailor. One of them married a woman called Hilda. They were born in Portsmouth/Portsea, between about 1885 and 1905 and had 2 sisters (Winifred Kate and Frances Matilda Ann Adams) and 3 other brothers (Charles Francis, Albert Edward and Edward Adams).
