Hopkinsville Kentuckian May 1900 (Lists a Webster County Lady as Survivor) Died Tuesday Night Mr. M. Adams Succumbs to a Complication of Diseases After a protracted illness, resulting from a general breaking down of health, Mr. Montgomery Adams died Tuesday night at his home near this city. He was a son of John and Elizabeth Adams, and was born near the farm where he died. He was about 57 years of age and was one of three brothers who have long been regarded as among the very best citizens of the county. He owned the old Adams homestead and every few years it has been the custom of the Adams brothers to hold a general family reunion on the premises, where a dinner barbecued meats and other good things would be serve dand the day spent in speechmaking, etc. The whole-souled subject of this sketch was usually the prime mover in these hospitable reunions and many friends would be invited to meet with the large number of descendants of the elder Adams, who bore the distinguished name of President of the United States. Many a heart will be saddened to know that Gum Adams, the clever gentleman, the upright citizen, the generous neighbor and kin hearted friend has attended the last family reunion on earth. He was twice married. His first wife was Miss Mollie Forbes, a sister of the Forbes Brothers of this city. One child was the result of this union, Mrs. J.S. Givens, of Providence,Ky. A second wife and several small children survive him. He leaves a handsome estate. Mr. Adams was a consistent member of the Christian church. His funeral services were held at the family burying ground Wednesday afternoon. Betty Sellers
