R. N. ADAMS was born October 7, 1842, in Todd County; he is a son of W. D.
and Frances (Grady) Adams.  The father was born in Virginia in 1805; he
died in March, 1876; the mother died in 1850.  In about 1827 these parents
came to Todd County and engaged in framing.  Our subject was raised on this
farm.  He enlisted in 1862 in Company A in Woodward's Cavalry, and served
about five months, when he returned home and continued farming.  He now
owns the homestead with 200 acres; also 600 acres where he now resides, and
116 acres two miles east of this point; he owns a house and lot at Morris
Station and two town lots in Trenton.  In April, 1881, he opened his
present store, and carries a general stock of about $4,000.  Mr. Adams was
married in December, 1865, to Miss Mattie J. Grady, of this county, by whom
he had three children--two now living.  He is a member of the Masonic
fraternity.
