John W. Adams came of New England stock, but was born in Madison county, Ohio, where his father, Charles H., who was a native of Connecticut, settled when that county was a wilderness, and lived to the close of his life. John W. subsequently moved and settled on the farm now occupied by Warren Harris in Darby township, Union county, where he resided until his death. His wife, Miss Etha Delp, to whom he was married in this county, was a native of Germany, and a daughter of George H. Delp, of a pioneer family of Union county. Of the six children born to this union, five are living as follows: Charles H., who married Mary Harris, of this county; Albert married Sarah J. Harris,of this county; David, Edward and William. The latter two at home, and David, at this time, July 1882, is largely engaged in banking business at O'Neil City, Neb., where he has been associated the past two years. The present generation of the Adams family represent the descendants of one of the oldest and respected pioneer connections of Madison and Union counties.
