Biography

This profile is part of the Adlam Name Study.

John was born about 1847 in Canada. He moved to Michigan City, Indiana, where some of his siblings and mother had moved to, presumably to find work with the railroad. He passed away there in 1878 and is buried in Greenwood Cemetery near his mother and siblings. His only child William was then raised by his wife's parents, Thomas and Martha Gainforth.

For your DNA confirmation statement: Because the matching test takers are more distantly related than third cousin, you will need to use triangulation. See this part of the DNA confirmation instructions:

I've changed the 'confirmed with DNA' entry to 'confident'. Please add the appropriate documentation before changing it back to 'confirmed with DNA'. Thanks!
