My 4th great grandmother was "Nell" ADAMS, born circa 1780. She married James Alexander AIKMAN around 1800 in Columbia Co., PA.. Apparently she died by 1811, after having children John, Levi and Mary Elizabeth. I descend from her oldest son, John.

I suspect Nell may have been the daughter of local Conrad ADAMS but have been unable to prove it. Would love to solve this mystery one day! After James Alexander AIKMAN remarried he had other children and later moved his 2nd wife and all his family up to Ontario, Canada (before 1831) so none of Nell's descendants are in Pennsylvania.
