I know Adams is a common name, however, my ggg grandfather was a John Adams who later had a daughter Thurza. John was born Feb 15/1821 but died in 1873. There was no entry in the family prayer book regarding his wife. His daughter Thurza was born in 1856. The book was presented to John in 1860 and perhaps he was a widower by then. So far it seems that Thurza was the only child. The book has been passed down in the family but apart from the entries for births of Thurza's children and her husband's siblings (Wilkinson Seymours) , there is little other info. The towns entered in the book are Aston and Tipton...who was where is also not clear. Thanks
