ADAMS

12/01/05

I would like to find the parents and siblings of Sarah Jane Adams Cornelison, born 1833 in Tennessee. She married Joseph Columbus Cornelison in 1851, apparently after arriving in Oregon by wagon train with her parents.

It is possible that she was related to John Adams of Myrtle Creek. Sarah was buried in the Adams cemetery, as John was. However, she also may be related to Williams Adams of Oak Creek as there are connections to Cornelisons in that family.

I have been looking through old obits to find the relatives of John and Henry Adams of Myrtle Creek. Have not found any sign of Sarah. I haven't seen much on William Adams, though.

Any help would be appreciated.
