associated with J. T. & P. Pine with a Mr. Dunham in the collar and cuff business until 1878. He married Ida
E. Viets of the town of Schaghticoke, by whom he has had three children: Myron J. (the subject of this sketch),
Lottie E., and Kate, who died in infancy. Mr. Adams died August 2, 1878; his widow survives at this date (1896).
The ancestry of the family is German and New England stock.
