Adams, female, age 5 months [Jonathan was sometimes called John.] In 1870, trhe family of Richard B Adams and Eliza Margaret McGee Adams consisted of the following, according to the Dallas Co 1870 census: Joseph Adams, male, age 21 farm laborer William Adams, male, age 20 farm laborer Robert Adams, male, age 18 farm laborer James Adams male, age 14, farm laborer Jonathan Adams, male, age 12 farm laborer Elizabeth Adams, female, age 10 Sarah Adams, female, age 8 Margaret Adams, female, age 7 Mary Adams, female, age 4 Eliza A. Adams, female, age 1 In 1870, they were living in the Summerfield Precinct, census dated 9 July 1870. I have other information on the family of Eliza Margaret McGee Adams, the daughter of Joseph McGee and Elizabeth (Betsey) McGough McGee, who arrived in Dallas County from Kentucky ca 1818-1819. Joseph and Betasy are buried in the Mount Pleasant Cemetery, north of Summerfield. If you would like to have other McGee and McGough information, let me know -- I am glad to share. My g-g-grandmother, Mary McGough Armstrong, was an older sister of Elizabeth McGough McGee. Eliza Margaret McGee Adams had six sisters, most of whom moved "west" beginning around 1850. Best wishes, Bob Parrott, Knoxville TN
