~ Edit 05/32/2022 : It is unclear if Charles Adams is the father of Silas Adams. Silas is NOT named in the Will, or Probate, records of Charles Adams. There is a William H. Adams, aged 60-70 in the 1840 De Kalb County, Alabama, Census that is a potential candidate to be the father of Silas. The same can be said for the James Adams that had land on the French Broad River.
Some records show that John Hightower, (Transferred from James Adams) might have been issued 300 acres of land in Buncombe County, located "Lying on a Branch of Richmond Creek to a Branch entering into French Broad River", but no matching Patent was found. More research is required to determine if a Patent was actually issued. The original request for this land was entered on 20 Oct 1792 and assigned Buncombe County Entry # 217.
Some records show that Charles Adams might have been issued 200 acres of land in Buncombe County, located "Lying on Robert Browns Mill Creek beginning at a chestnuttree near the head of a steep hollow", but no matching Patent was found. More research is required to determine if a Patent was actually issued. The original request for this land was entered on 04 Apr 1820 and assigned Buncombe County Entry # 1024.
As of 10 September 1831, it appears that Charles Adams of Buncombe County, North Carolina was an absconding debtor. Isaac Brock granted land to Jonathan Siniard. James Siniard had a claim against Charles Adams. Thus, Charles Adams was most certainly associated with the kin of Silas Adams' wife's family. Although he may not be the father, the chances are good that he was of some kin to Silas. ~
