Mary Adams¹

F, #33946, b. 1772, d. circa 1832

Reference: W999 ID395

Birth*: 1772; Maryland, USA¹
(Bride) Marriage*: February 1789; now Brooke Co., Ohio Co., West Virginia, USA; Groom=Caleb Wells^2,1
(Deceased) Death*: circa 1832; Morgan Co., Ohio, USA¹
Burial*: circa 1833; Emery Cemetery, Morgan Co., Ohio, USA; Mary was daughter of Samuel Adams. (Caleb Wells' interview with Draper). Without doubt she was of the family of William and Samuel Adams who 1794 witnessed the will of Benjamin Wells, father of Caleb. (Note her sons were names Samuel and William Wells). Caleb's brother Charles named a daughter Caty Adams Wells, probably for another member of this family; but there is no Adams in the ancestry of Charles or of his wife. Presumably the Adams and the Wells families were close friends.
