    3. I am researching my ancestor, Adam Nichols, b. 1756 in New Hampshire. According to his Rev. War Pension file he moved to Hardin Co. by March 1838 to live with his son. I have found two Nichols in the census records for 1840: a John Nichols on page 034 and a Henry Nichols on page 031. The index I had access to said that Henry was a Nicholas but looking through the years 1820-1840 both Henry & John were listed as Nichols & Nicholas. I know that Adam Nichols also had a son in law, Jesse Atwood, who is listed in the 1840 Census Index as being on page 020. It's possible Adam could have lived with him. Could someone please check the census records for me for these three men? I'd like to see if one of them had a male of about 84 living with them. Adam Nichols died in 1847. According to another Nichols researcher he "died in Near Bowling Green, KY and is buried in Nolan Station, Hardin Co., KY." Could anyone help me verify Adam's place of burial? I stop at Bowling Green several times a year on my way to Louisville. I'd like to find where Adam might be buried or lived so I can visit next time I pass through. Sincerely, Gwen Brooks Atlanta, GA
