| Lucinda Wolf5, (Jacob,4 Michael,3
Jacob,2 Michael1) b.
in KY married to
Peter F. Adams. Her birth year is disputable. It
is either 1809 or 1819 however family member that I have met,
personally, insist that the family bible page which is virtually
unreadable now, gives the date as 18 Dec 1809. I personally viewed
a copy of the bible page used to support the 1809 claim of the birth
date and the 9 is definitely readable it is just the 1 or 0 that is in
question. The family members presently living who are descendants
of the Lucinda Wolf who married Mr. Peter Adams feel that it relates to
the daughter Lucinda and that is why it is recorded here in this manner.
The family members also have letters which refer to the Major as
Grandfather and not Uncle, however, there is no document that states the
names of the parents of the Lucinda Wolf who married a Mr. Peter Adams.
There is more than reasonable doubt to support the belief that this
material is in its proper place. So she was born 18 Dec 1809, d. 7
Jan 1857, the first child of the Major and his first wife. She married
Peter F. Adams who was b. 5 Jul 1806 in KY, and d. 16 Apr 1857 in AR.
They were married 23 Nov 1826. He was a man of property and said to be
have been of a cold, forbidding appearance and of a reticent nature.
Nine children were recorded in the family Bible and, according to the
1850 Fulton Co., AR, census, all were born in Arkansas.
Peter F. Adams was commissioned as Lt. Col. 23 Jan 1836 in Izard
County, Arkansas Territory. He and his wife did not go to Texas as did
some of their children after the war. His son George Wolf Adams did go
to Texas with an older brother as he was orphaned at the age of 5. He
had intended to move to New Mexico where two of his older brother had
moved. However mostly they lived at Marathon, Brewster Co., TX. Reference: Adams and Allied Families by Leona Adams Loviska, Personal Records of Normadale Smith, Personal Records of Shirley Smith |
