Adams" have the some background! The 2nd marrige record (Halifax Co) for Redmond W. indicates his parents were "Redmond Adams" and Mary. Pittsylvania Co records show the marriage of Redmond Adams and Mary Polly Grigsby, daughter of Moses Grigsby. Looking at Ancestry.com's "Member Trees," I see that someone in Moses' family married a "Jane Redmond"!! I can't help wonder if there is a connection, since "Redmond" certainly is a different first name! I would love to have discovered a will for Redmond Adams, listing his children. The deed book did indicate that he had land at Shockoe, Pittsylvania Co. Maybe this will help you a little!! However, since it has been over 2 years since your message to which I am replying, perhaps you can share with me what you have learned since then and we can "compare notes" !
