Peter was the father of Buford Adams and Rosanah Adams Adams, who are also in this small cemetery. Agatha Adams, daughter of Buford, wrote in 1942 that Peter and Ona Orchard Adams were buried here, but without stones. Peter died intestate, and John Frederick Langford, his son-in-law became the administrator. Letters of administration say that Peter Adams died on or about 15 Aug 1844.
Peter Adams appears in the tax roll of Knox County, Kentucky for the first time in 1808. The legal age to be taxed or own land was 21, suggesting he was born about 1787.
