Denny; Will keep my eyes open on Wilhelm. I'm familiar with the Fauquier Littleton ADAMS line as I'm a native of Fauquier myself and thought for years I was part of that line. Do you have any idea where Wilhelm was before Loudoun? Both the Fauquier Co. Littleton ADAMS line and the Fairfax Co. Abendego ADAMS line originated in Charles Co., MD though each line contends there is no connection between the two. Prince William Co. had ADAMS as well, with a prominent Charles ADAMS living in Dumfries in the 1700's. He was an Assistant Tobacco Inspector and lived right on the harbor. I've been looking for years and can't match him to any clan yet. I've seen indication that the Gabriel ADAMS line originated on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and then went into Fairfax Co. before coming into Loudoun. You might want to look at my database and see if anything is familiar. I've got ADAMS from both Fauquier lines shown, though my line is the one that includes Francis Adams and Mary Godfrey. Here's the URL http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=blueridge Let me know if you have any indication of Wilhelm's origin's. Should I ever see mention of him, I'll certainly let you know. Regards, Sandy Denny Shirer wrote: > Sandy, > > Please keep me apprised of anything you find on the Wilhelm (William) Adams line.

Sandy, I followed your web link below and emailed you at a different address that was listed. Wanted to check in with you as part of my CHAMBERS line in connected to your ADAMS line. Your Louisa ADAMS (1813-1927) married Samuel CHAMBERS (11/21/1810-4/7/1896). Samuel was a brother to a direct descendant of mine, Albert Gaston CHAMBERS. I have plenty on the CHAMBERS line if you like it. Email me for more information. -Troy Chambers Wollwage ----- Original Message ----- From: "ADAMS & WEBB" <mtnlaurl@erols.com> To: <VALOUDOU-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 9:57 PM Subject: Re: [VALOUDOU-L] Re: ADAMS > Denny; > > Will keep my eyes open on Wilhelm.
