Hope someone on the Edgefield list can help me with this ADAMS family. I have done a little research on Joseph Quincy Adams [1855--1921], son of Richard Wright Adams [1800--1864]. Is there anyone on the list that has the obit of Joseph Q Adams' son Winston Davis Adams ?b. Apr 1882? date from 1900 census records. would like to know his date of birth & death and where he is buried his parents are buried in Wadesboro NC. I would expect Winston Davis Adams to have died in Charlotte NC and probably buried there also ....
