I've been getting some research help from folks on the Ancestry message boards regarding my 6x great-grandfather, Ebenezer Adams, and I came back to look at this profile. I just noticed that his death date, 4/19/1798 is the same as Ebenezer Adams (his son), Adams-5515. Do we have confirmation of their death dates? I'll see what research I can find.
