William Christopher Adams and Rachel Nichols Adams
Looking for information on the parents of William Christopher Columbus Adams who was born in or near Marion County, Tennessee on February 7, 1823.Family records say his parents were William Christopher Adams and Rachel (Nichols)Adams.The 1830 census of Marion County shows Rachel Adams as head of household (William Christopher died before 1830?) with 5 males assumed to be sons.The two youngest are most probably William Christopher Columbus and his brother, David Marcus (1825-1862).We have no idea who the older males are but all are listed as being under 20 years of age.Rachel is listed as being between 40 and 50.From William Christopher Columbus Adams forward we have a great deal of information we would be glad to share.
We feel confident of his parents' names but brothers, sisters and farther back is our "brick wall" and any help would be greatly appreciated.
