Hi!
I do have deeds for the farm they moved to in Meade. They appear to have left Harrison in
the mid 1770s. They weren't any help unfortunately in establishing the parentage of
James Adams.
My James Adams was born in 1814 in Nelson, KY. His second marriage license states that
his parents were born in Nelson, too. There were many Adams who moved into Nelson in the
1780s. We just can't get a connection established between James and all those other
Adams.
It's also been hard to establish when the family left Nelson for Harrison County IN.
There is a Richard Adams in Harrison who definitely was from Nelson, born about 1799. As
tantalizing as it is, we just can't get evidence to relate James with Richard.
So, it's just a mystery. That's why I was hoping to get those 1877 deeds in
Harrison, from Book AW. I just wish the LDS had microfilmed that book.
