Mary Louisa Adams (1830-1898) and Joseph Hilliard French, who lived near Hughes Springs, TX, were my great-grandparents.Her maiden name was Mary Louisa Porch and I believe she was born in Greenville, Meriwether County, GA. Mormon Church records have a marriage of a Mary Louisa Porch to Jeremiah Samuel Adams in Meriwether County, GA in 1845.I know that Mary Louisa's son, Thomas Adams, came to Texas also.I know nothing about her children who stayed in Alabama.Joseph Hilliard French was not a northener; he was born in Campbell County, GA, lived in Alabama before the Civil War, and fought in the Confederate army.I would like to know more about Mary Louisa's family and will share information with you.
