This David Adams was born June 1, 1785 (based on age 73 years 11 months and 1 day on his tombstone) in Beaver County, Pennsylvania to an earlier David Adams. His tombstone designates him as Senior to distinguish him from his son living in the community who was also named David; in reality he probably should have been referred to as David Adams, II instead of Senior. This younger David Adams, II (born 1785) was a soldier in the war of 1812. He married Sarah McKibbben #55535217. They were the parents of 14 children. Sarah preceded David in death but he was laid to rest at her side when his time came. As their 3rd-great-granddaughter I am deeply grateful to both of them for their lives and the courageous way they lived them. May they rest in peace . . .
