Samuel Adams
I am trying to prove the lineage of my great grandfather, Robert Henry Adams.He was born 21 Dec 1851 in Ohio and died 08 Sep 1901 and buried in Marion, Crittenden, Kentucky, USA.This information is proven by a family bible, gravestones, and census records.He married Sue Augusta Hodge (b 01 Dec 1859 in Marion, Crittenden, Kentucky, USA and died 18 Feb 1915 in Athens, Alabama, but buried in Marion, Crittenden, Kentucky, USA.They were the parents of my grandmother Ethel Northern Adams who married Arthur Edgar Greenhill.
His father was Samuel Adams as proven by several census records.He was born in Pennsylvania in about 1819 and died before 1880.His middle name was probably Wilson because he had a son named Samuel Wilson Adams and my great uncle is also Samuel Wilson Adams, the child of Robert Henry Adams.Samuel's wife was Sarah A. (I believe her last name was Hall, because a Robert J. Hall was living with them in the 1850 Green County, Ohio census).
Samuel and Sarah A. raised their children in Green County, Ohio as per the 1850, 1860, and 1870 Ohio Censuses.By 1880 Sarah A. Adams had moved to Kentucky.
The 1880 Pennsylvania Census list a Samuel and Sarah A. Adams, but they can not be the same.
