I will hop over to the library and see if there is pension information.There is in 1840 an older man 1750-1760 with Reuben in Robertson.The older female is 1770-1780.The 1850 census says that the informant gave Reuben's age as bn 1800 and Prisilla's as bn 1802. In 1830 Reuben is near Turner Adams.Do we know who Turner Adams is? William Adams is not far off and he is 50-60 (1770-1780).I note that in 1830 there is Abner Adams, Sterling H. Adams, Allen Adams, William P. Adams, Nathan Adams, Reuben Adams,Turner Adams and George Adams.(I do think this may be another George not mine because of the children.)A William (NMI)Adams is the oldest at 1770-1780 in 1830.1840 shows JOhn L, Wm, Abner, Sterling, Samuel (1780-1790-Samuel Goodbrook was bn 1787)Wm R, Mary A., Reuben, W. H., Allen, Lewis A, and my George and my William. I'll stop and go look at the pensions now.Meredith
