The History Of Hancock Co., KY includes a bio of JQ Adams who was born in tht county.This is not your John Quincy because it lists two wives and neither of them is Sara Evans, however the article says JQ's grandfather came down the river in a flatboat from Pa. and setteled near Frankfort, KY.You might try looking there for other members of his family.Perhaps John Quincy is a fanily name.My grandmother was an Adams from KY and I have found found mention in an old volume of "The Winkler Book, in the Daviess County Library, Kentucky Room, that my grandmother was descended from the Presidents John Adam and John Quincy Adams.This was the only bit of documentation I found and it could not be proven further.My line of Adams' have been in Ohio, Daviess, and Hancock counties in KY (all these were originally Ohio and Breckenridge counties)since before the turn of the eighteenth century.The early Adams settlers came from an area near Frankfort so there is probably a connection but I haven't made it firmly.I doubt that this helps you but I have not really research John Q, only when I came across the name in my own research.
