The Adams children listed are the children of their oldest daughter, Mary Jane Elizabeth Bannister Adams, and her husband, Albert Adams. The relationship of the two people named "Newsom" is unknown, but they could be siblings of Lucy's. The family came from South Carolina (possibly Anderson County). Visit my web site for more information on this family.
