RESEARCHERS NOTES

 

This section is devoted to aid the more serious researcher in determining which records I have and my interpretations of the records. 

 

I have researched the DAR Library and the National Archives in Washington, DC, the LDS  Library in Salt Lake City, and numerous other Libraries.  I have extracted all data on the Adamson name from the Soundex records or Census records of most states for the years 1790 to 1920. I have extracted information from the Internet and several publications of which the following I have in my personal library.  My collection of publications and research aides are:
