Researchers:
I am looking to connect my Washington Adams with his proper parents and
ancestors. William was born in Ohio in 1811. We do not know the county
of birth in Ohio. However, in 1830 Wayne Township, Owen county census
we find a Washington ADAMS living with one male under age 5 and one
female age 30 to 40. His age is shown as being between 15 to 20. This
would tie in with his birth being in 1811.
In 1832 our Washington ADAMS was living in Lagrange county, IN where he
married Laura Hill daughter of Dr. Moses Hill.
It is our guess that in the 1830 census, Washington Adams was living
with his mother and perhaps his 5 year old brother. So most likely his
father (name unknown) had passed away. Is there any information out
there about Owens county that might help us in our search of this family?
Thank you for your help.
Perry Adams
