Event Notes
Note (1) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Nov 1848.  But birth date in death record
is Aug 20 1850, date on headstone is 1850, and age 20 in the 1870 Census would
also put it in about 1850.
Note (2) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Dec 1857.
Note (3) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Jan 1898, age 2.  But birth record shows
it as Dec 8 1898.
Note (4) Guessing that this is the Carl G. Adams listed as a surviving brother in
Wayne C. Adams' 1919 obit.
