"Adler was the second son named in the will of William Arrington of Albemarle County, Virginia. He was born in or before 1728, for William left him land in his will. Adler would have had to be at least twenty one years old to own land. In 1764 Adler is found listed in a Buckingham County Tax List. [citing Buckingham County Church Records for Tillotson Parish.] ...The earliest Personal Property Tax List I located in Virginia for Buckingham County was in 1784. In this listing Adler is listed as having one slave, one horse, and one white male tithable, other than himself. The tithable was probably a son and to be tithable would have been older than sixteen years....Separate listings in Buckingham County for 1784 was that of Adler Jr., adult son of Adler...and [of] Samuel Arrington...Adler Sr. continues to be listed in tax records through 1794. He is listed with tithables up to 1786 but from 1787 none, other than himself, is listed. His sons had all reached maturity and are believed to have moved around 1786 or 1787. Adler Sr. is believed to have died around 1794 for he is not mentioned in tax records after that date. Several land sales just prior to and after 1794 name Adler as selling acreage. In 1793, 597 acres were sold to Peter Patterson abt 100 acres to Richard McShane. In 1796, 100 acres was sold to John Bocock. In 1799, another 100 acres to Peter Patterson. While the sale lists Adler, they do not specify which Adler and it is supposed that Adler Jr. may have been selling land of his father."
