The 1855 record identifies her birth location as Wayne county, NY. That may simply indicate that her family was there.
Some trees have Harriet Adaline married to Teal. Also connects with a son Tyrus Adams. If her, it appears to be second marriage, Nehemiah Adams being first. Will come back to this.
