In 1882 the family moved to Hickory county, Mo., where she attended the Diamond Grove school and Weaubleau Christian college. In 1900 she accompanied her parents to Oregon; she was married in Oregon City Congregational parsonage on August 9, 1905, to David F. Adcock, and their first home was near Willamette. From 1908 until 1916 they lived at Mt. Pleasant, then moved to their farm bordering the Tualatin river.

Snidow, Willamette; Mrs. Frank (Emma) Guenther, Oregon City, the oldest and youngest of the eight Roman children. J. G. Adcock of Clackamas Height is a brother-in-law.
