My Adams, George, Robert was also from Londonderry.He was a Printers Reader, had a Son called James who I believe was an Army Officer in India. George Roberts first wife is unknown. He wanted to Marry Pheobe Jane Richardson who had also been married before with a son Called James Yeo. Mary's family was against the marriage so they came over to England around 1875/76 and lived in Holborn, London. I am trying to find the Irish part of the Adams family.
