Adams Family of South Carolina
Ron Turner and I are beginning research into the Adams Family of SC.
1. Our Grandfather was Augustus Albert Adams. He was born in Colleton County, SC on 24 May 1874. He and his family moved to Charleston in the 1930s. He was killed in a train accident in the Charleston area in June 1937. He was married to Clara Elizabeth Smoak. (Clara was the daughter of Charlie Benjamin(sp?) Smoak and Margaret Smoak)
2. Our Great Grandfather was James Adams. He was born near Stokes, SC. He died in 1909 (?) in Columbia, SC. He was married to Molly Beach. They had 4 Children: Augustus, Alice, Addie, and Jennie.
3. It is believed that our Great Great Grandfather (Father of James) or his father came to America from Holland and settled in SC, but this is all the information that we have at the present time.
If you have any information that may help us name the Great Great Grandfather or Great Great Great Grandfather and/or confirm that one of them came from Holland, we would really appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Dan and Ron
