Judy, I have a James Adams born about 1832 in OHio. HIS father was the one born in Ireland, and also named James Adams. My James Adams, born in OHio, had a son named William also, along with a Marshal, David, Ellsworth, Ruth, Sarah L, and Oda Jane. Their mother was Hannah Sykes, a cousin of Louis Wetzel that we all read about and study in history class when we research pioneers. Sue
