I&...Dr. D, I am intrigued by your ancestry search. I've always wanted to learn more about my heritage. I am the great great grand daughter of Cash Adams of Breckenridge, Missouri. My great grand father was Frank Adams. My grand mother, Frank's daughter, was Lois K. (Adams) Howell. My Dad is Robert Howell, son of Lois. I spent much of my childhood with my grand mother and with grandpa Adams. I'd love to know where we originate from. I'd love to learn more about our family. Thank You for all the great information on your blog. Take care. God Bless You. Christine M.

If that doesn't pay off, I may visit the courthouse in Madison County when my wife and I spend a night at The Farm, a bed and breakfast near Danville, Kentucky on October 30th.Dr Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774555636055110063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-51658340725323381402012-10-21T09:03:34.954-07:002012-10-21T09:03:34.954-07:00Hi Dave -

Thanks Beverly. The plot begins to thicken;...BINGO! Thanks Beverly. The plot begins to thicken; or should I say the relationship begins to solidify. I had not yet noticed how close geographically Isaac (and supposedly Patsey) lived to Harvey REEVES. I appreciate your opinion given your vast knowledge of this family.<br /><br />It is amazing how often we have important information in our hands but are diverted from noticing it because we are too busy searching for new information sources.<br /><br />It also demonstrates the usefulness of having a second pair of eyes look over our documentation. While it would be great to find a "smoking gun" like the marriage record you mention, the circumstantial evidence is mounting up until there are too many coincidences to ignore.<br /><br />Thanks again Beverly!<br />Dr Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774555636055110063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-57757253396887237992012-10-12T09:51:25.047-07:002012-10-12T09:51:25.047-07:00I haven't been able to locate a marriage recor...I haven't been able to locate a marriage record yet, but I'm still pretty well convinced. Did you notice that the next neighbor of Isaac N. Adams in the 1840 Madison County census was Harvey (listed as Henry) Reeves?<br /><br />BeverlyBeverly Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05651072473717710158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-90670665519035923692012-10-12T06:37:03.173-07:002012-10-12T06:37:03.173-07:00Thank you CeCe and Jody for your encouraging words...Thank you CeCe and Jody for your encouraging words. <br />Some genealogists do not list the unnamed daughter on whom I am focusing. Two daughters Elizabeth and Rittie are consistently listed; but Rittie is listed as dying before the age of 5 so she could not be either of the two teenaged females listed as living in the household in the 1830 Census. Elizabeth could fit the age for the one between 10 and 15. My Patsey would be the right age for the one between 15 and 20.Dr Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774555636055110063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-61166537790787789772012-10-11T15:06:06.559-07:002012-10-11T15:06:06.559-07:00Great work, Dave.
