I am researching the ADAMS family of Lauderdale Co., AL.  David Adams b. ca 1797 in TN m. (1) Betsy Fielder (2) Vicy/Dicy Haines/Webb.  It's possible that Vicy maiden name was Webb.  Had married a Haines and then married
David Adams.  David was a miller along Bumpass Creek just before the Civil War.  His children were Betty Elizabeth, James, Jesse, Silvester, John H., Ruben, Elisha, Josephus, Isibilla, Nancy, Henry, David, Tennessee and L.Sallie.  The children started migrating to AR just before the Civil War.  Most all the family had moved there by 1880.  I would like to share information with anyone that is also researching this family.  My direct ancestor is Silvester, also known as Sill Vesta.  My co-researcher's ancestor is John H.   We have a picture we'd copy of the siblings.
