Bio by Beverly: The person born this date in Monroe Maine was John W. Adams, 5th child of David and Mary E. (West) Adams of Monroe. (Monroe Town Records) If the middle name was Norris it was added after the birth record. This family was in the 1870 census in Monroe Maine with children including John W. born 1866. Father David had been born in PEI Canada and Mary in Maine.

His mother died when he was young.

He married Catherine E. Moran Jan 27, 1891 in Boston when he was 25 yrs of age and Catherine was 28. Parents were given as David and Mary Adams. Her parents Patrick and Bridget Moran. No middle initial given for John on the marriage record but it does give his place of birth as Monroe Maine and hers as Chelsea Massachusetts, first marriage for both. He was a hair dresser and she a seamstress.

In the 1900 census the family resided in Bennington, Hillsborough, New Hampshire. John was 35 born in Maine, parents born in Maine and he was a barber. Catherine was 38 born in Massachusetts, parents born in Ireland. Children at that time were Marrie S. age 8 born in Maine and Phineas E. age 1 born in Massachusetts. This census puts John's birth as May 1865 and Catherine's as May 1862 and they had been married 10 years. Catherine had given birth to three children, two of whom were living in 1900. In the 1910-1930 census David was still living in Bennington.

A 4th child, Frank Webster Adams was born in 1906.

I have connected John to his parents. I found no record showing a middle name other than the birth record John W. and a tree on Ancestry, John Norris.
