Title: Samuel Enoch Adams 1845 - 1923
Post by: bestie on Sunday 28 November 21 12:28 GMT (UK)
Samuel Enoch Adams was born on the 18th of July 1845 and his birth was registered at Stoke Damerel, Devon. On his baptismal record of March 8 1846, his father’s name is James Adams, a mariner of Devonport, and his mother Amelia Ann.
I have Samuel in the 1881 census, he built the terrace and occupied the house I live in at that date but I have no details of his earlier life, which I need to flesh out his profile. Has anyone got census details from 1851, 61, 71? Thanks. Jim
