    3. Could use some help with this one if anyone has information. I have two George Adams born in 1856. I thought I had this figured out, but then census information threw me last night. Any help in sorting this out would be appreciated. Which George Adams married Catherine O'Neill or was it the same George Adams who married Mary Catherine Farabaugh? Here is the information I've pieced together: George Thomas Adams, s/o Thomas Adams and Catherine Fetters, b. 23 Apr 1856 d. 12 Oct 1922 or 1927 (no obituary) conflicting death dates, possibly buried at St. Michael Cemetery ST. MICHAEL CEMETERY Loretto: ADAMS, George b. 1856 d. 1927; h/o Catherine; main section (H) m. Jun 1885 in Pennsylvania Mary Catherine Farabaugh, d/o Earhart Farabaugh and Sarah Ann Eckenrode, b. 18 Jun 1859 d. 3 Mar 1894 bur. at either St. Michael Cemetery or St. Benedict Cemetery ST. MICHAEL CEMETERY Loretto: ADAMS, Mary Catharine (FARABAUGH) b. 1856 d. 3 Mar 1894; w/o George (K) ; ST. BENEDICT CEMETERY, Carrolltown: ADAMS, Mary b. 18 Jun 1859 d. 3 Mar 1894 Age 35y; d/o Erhardt & Mary Farabaugh Four children born to this marriage: Anna Catherine Adams (1886-1963) m. John McNulty (1883-1967) Thomas Adams (1887-1924) died in Ohio Philomena Susan Adams (1889-1890) Lenus Adams (1893-1894) buried at St. Benedict Cemetery Here is the confusing part. On the 1900 Census George Adams is married to Catherine, age 41, married for four years with no children. There is a son, Thomas living with him, age 12. 1900 Census Cresson Twp. George T. Adams 42 (Apr 1858) m.4y PA PA GER RR Laborer Catherine (O'Neill?) Adams 41 (Jun 1858) m.4y 0/ PA IRE PA Thomas Adams 12 (Sep 1887) PA PA PA The Cambria County Marriage Index shows George Adams marrying Kate O'Neill in 1896, which would have been 2 years after Mary Catherine Farabaugh died, (1896 on the 1900 census). There is another George Adams, s/o Matthew Maurice Adams and Elizabeth Fels, b. 5 Nov 1856 d. 1927? buried at St. Michael's, who I originally had as the spouse of Catherine O'Neill, however now with the 1900 census information I think perhaps George T. Adams widow of Mary Catherine Farabaugh married Catherine O'Neill in 1896. Any information would be most helpful. Thank you, Donna Noel Julian
