Biography
Henry Adams was born to Thomas Adams[1] about 1703[1] in Prince George County,[1] Virginia.
He was married about 1727[1] to his wife Elizabeth[1] who was born about 1709[1] in Southeast Virginia.[1]
Henry wrote his will on 04 Sep 1767,[1] naming his wife Elizabeth and six children:

- John Adams[1]
- Martha Adams[1]
- Mary Adams[1]
- Agnes (Adams) Killigrew[1]
- Ann (Adams) Rollins[1]
His witnesses to the will were Edward Harris, Henry Ivey, and Reuben Adams.[1]

Postscript
After his death, Elizabeth and family moved to Brunswick County, Virginia.[1]
