John C. Adams, 20, and Hattie D. Shroyer, 16, with consent by father, John Shroyer, were married August 6, 1881 in Nodaway County, Missouri. (Source: Marriage License)
=============================

Samuel C. Adams was born at Terre Haute, Indiana, November 26, 1860, and departed this life September 2, 1934, at the age of 73 years, 6 months, and 6 days. When yet a small boy he moved with his parents to Nodaway county (sic), Missouri, where he grew to manhood. On August 5th (sic), 1881, he was united in marriage with Hattie Dell Shroyer, and to this union twelve children were born, eight of whom are still living.

In 1886 he moved with his family to a homestead in Lincoln county (sic), Kansas, where he remained to prove up on his claim. Forty-six years ago he again moved his family, this time to Nuckolls county (sic), Nebraska. Here he lived the remainder of his life.

As a young man, Mr. Adams united with the Baptist church (sic), with which connection he remained as long as he lived. He passed away from his home in Oak, after a very brief illness of and (sic) hour and a half. He had not been in robust health for the past few years, but about as usual until just before midnight Saturday night. He passed away quietly as though falling into a deep sleep.

Another of our pioneers and early settlers has gone to that great country ahead, where all hardship and suffering are past.

Mr. Adams leaves to sorrow at his going, one brother, his wife and eight children, eleven grand-children, and a number of nieces and nephews; besides a host of friends. He will be greatly missed by the citizens of Oak, where for many years he has been a familiar and respected citizen.

Funeral services were held from the Methodist church (sic) in Oak, Tuesday, September 4, at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. G.M. Bing of Nora. A quartette composed of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Washington, Earl Kincannon and Mrs. Verle Moore sang, with Mrs. Harry Moore at the piano. The pallbearers were Messrs. Chas. Johnson, Roy and James Moore, Mike uresh (sic), Harry Marr and Ralph Graves. Burial was in the Oak cemetery.
