I am very interested in the names of Martha Adams' siblings. I have not been able to find very much information on Jesse Adams and his wife Eleanor Guy, and their children. I have assumed that Jesse is one of Bryant Adams sons. I am correct? Jesse and Eleanor are on the 1850 Johnston Co. census. Sir William Adams and his family live next door. I am assuming that he is a son. I have been unable to find Sir William Adams and his family or Jesee Adams on any later census records. I would be interested in any information that you could share on this family. I descend from Jacob Adams and his wife Milly (unknown) from Johnston Co. Jacob was born about 1780 and died before 1850. I descend from his son David Adams who was born about 1800, and died after 1870. Jacob had several children per the early census records. I have been trying to determine who Jacob Adams children were. I have also been trying to determine who his siblings were. Many researchers felt that Jacob Adams was one of Bryant Adams sons. I have done quite a bit of research, and do not believe this to be true. Jacob was the executor of Howell Adams estate in 1800. Howell Adams and Bryant Adams are the earliest Adams head of households on the census records for Johnston County. Each of these gentlemen had several children on the 1790 census. I have been looking at all of the early Adams families in Johnston County, and trying to determine who belongs to whom. Any information about Martha, her siblings and her children would be appreciated. Louise Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
