Excerpt from Genealogy of the Adams Family, of Kingston, Mass A few explanatory remarks relative to this genealogy may be well, not only to the many interested in it, but to the few who have given it only a casual and indifferent thought. The first collection of information for this work was made by Theodore P. Adams, during his school vacation in the summer of 1857; this information was mainly in reference to francis adams and his immediate descendants. Feeling a strong interest in the matter, I subsequently engaged in the prosecution of the work, and after much labor and research have succeeded in tracing out most of the descendants of the ancestors, francis and mary. Those bearing the name of Adams are nearly, if not all, given in this genealogy; and those who have surrendered this name to the claims of matrimony, we have also endeavored to trace out as far as possible, without longer delaying the publication of the work. Our original design was merely to secure a complete genealogy of our own branch of the family; but discovering that many of the descendants of the ancestors belong ing to the other branches entertained a deep interest in the matter and a desire for an enlarged statement, a more comprehensive plan was then determined upon. To various individuals of the male branches of the children of Francis and Mary, we are indebted for valuable information, and for words and deeds of sympathy and encouragement. To name them would be gratifying, but it would be difficult to limit the list. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
