The 1860 census, completed in August, 1860 shows Andrew Adams living in Shakopee, Scott, Minnesota and working as a surveyor. The 1850 census shows him living in Troy, Ohio with his parents, which is the same place listed as his birth place on his grave marker. There was a 1857 census in Minnesota, but I do not find him on it. I would assume he and his wife married in Ohio. I could not find any specific information about his death, but the date is on his marker. Although he died during the Civil War period, there is no record he was enlisted.

Andrew and his wife, Susan, had a son, David, born the winter previous to the census, but the child died when just a few months old. A daughter was born in 1861, the same year Andrew died. The 1860 census says Susan Adams was one year older than Andrew, but her grave marker says she was actually born in 1819.
