Jim Suit asked: >Looking for information on William Adams who married Elizabeth Hall >on Sept 2, 1819 in Rowan County, NC. > I think he is probably the William Adams from the 1820 Rowan Co. census, Forks of the Yadkin area: 1820 Rowan County census, Forks of the Yadkin 000100 00100 In Davie County in 1850 there are two men named William Adams, both aged 47, in household 190: William F. Adams 47, farmer, b. Davie Co. [i.e. Rowan, since Davie didn't exist until 1837] Mary Adams 24 b. Orange Co. Isaac Adams 1 b. Davie William Adams 47 shoemaker b. Davie William Fry 8, mixed race b. Davie Is one of these your William? Two houses away, in #192, is Elizabeth Adams age 50, b. Davie, living by herself. Is this Elizabeth Hall Adams? Elizabeth appears to have been the daughter of Abraham HALL whose will is dated 1835, probated 1839 Davie Co. Elizabeth Harris state coordinator, NCGenWeb http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncgenweb/
