The Edward Adams FamilyUpdated May 19, 2009 | Edward B. Adams [email protected] |
| Welcome to the Edward Adams Family Home Page.My research started in May 1973 after my grandfather, Benjamin Stewart, died and we found a letter in which he wrote about himself, his parents, and his grandparents.Included in this letter was the information that his father was born in 1856 on Riffle Pont Plantation, Concordia Parish, Louisiana "in slavery time".I began my search for this plantation.I stopped my research in 1976 after hitting a brick wall.I decided to start researching again in 1993 after my daughter Julie asked me questions about our family's history and gave me information that some of the research could be done online.In 1993, I found the name of the plantation to be Rifle Point Plantation. On my ADAMS side, I am researching my great grandparents Mingo ADAMS b. abt 1833, Arkansas or Mississippi and Rachel NEWELL b. abt 1841 or 1843, Mississippi, or may have been brought from Canada.I am doing much of my research in Copiah, Hinds, Jefferson, Lawrence, and Lincoln County areas of Mississippi.
