ADAMS	Bob Adams	adamsrca1@juno.com	I am searching for the ancestors of Penelope Adams. Children are:1) Wiley Adams B Mar. 04 1798 - D May 21 18732) Matthais Adams B Oct. 10 1800 - D Mar 15 18553) Charlotte Adams B Abt 18014) Asa Lemuel Adams B Dec. 28 1809 - D Jun 13 1891All of these children believed to be born ed, raised and died in Montgomery County Georgia which became a County in 1793, a split off from Washington County. I havecopied some pages from a book named GEORGIA'S ROSTER of the REVOLUTION by Lucian Lamar Knight. Page 21 lists JOHN ADAMS as receiving a land grant. Page 22 lists ROBERT ADAMS as receiving a land grant. Page 206 lists something about the heirs of Robert Adams. I have other references to Washington county land grants listing the names, dates, book, page, acres and location. As an amateur Genealogist, I don't know how to use this data. Has anyone else researched these land grants? Does any of these Adamses link to any ones research? Any help would be appreciated.Bob Adamsadamsrca1@juno.com
