Hi! Been a lurker and I finally can contribute a bit. My Uncle Forrest Adamson lives in Brazil, IN and I imagine a son or two may still live in the area. My Adamson line comes from the Greenup IL area. Alfred and Emily (Huddleston) Adamson. My father has a pretty extensive genealogy tracing of these Adamson's and goes back quite a ways. It was and is still of great interest to him and he has spent many years tracking down leads. I plan on seeing if he has a timeline of these Adamsons but know that he has more than just names and dates.
