About John Adams

John Adams married Michael Bloice, dau of Richard Bloic & Michail Jennison on 2 April 1685: Medfield Records lists the following children: Samuel, Mary, Patience, Ruth, Josiah, john, Isaac, Richard, Joshua, Abigail, Bethia, Michael.

Due to a rather unfortunate history of mergers this profile needs major editing. This profile is now for better or worse:

John Adams3 (Peter2, Henry1).

To whit since this profile is locked in every respect please edit to these specs per "Descendants of Henry Adams:"

“JOHN3 A DAMS (son of Peter Adams and Rachel Unknown) was born in Braintree, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA. He died on 26 Feb 1724 in Canterbury, Windham, Connecticut, USA. He married Michal Bloice on 02 Apr 1685 in Braintree, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA. She was born on 03 Apr 1664 in Watertown, Middlesex Co., MA. She died on 14 Apr 1752.” In other words:

1) Parents Peter and Rachael

2) Death 26 Feb 1724 in Canterbury, Windham, Connecticut, USA

3) Birth ***unknown*** definitely not 18 Feb 1657 in Medford!

4) One Wife only: Michaela (Bloss) Adams

5) Get rid of Dorcas Dwight – she is spouse of a different John of Medford.

  • Note the vital on there now are for John Adams 3 (Edward2, Henry1) which is very confusing. He had a completely different set of wives and children than this John i.e.:

78. JOHN3 ADAMS (Edward2, Henry1) was born on 18 Feb 1657 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA[s21]. He died on 01 Mar 1751 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA. He married (1) DEBORAH PARTRIDGE (daughter of John Partridge and Magdalene Bullen) on 04 Apr 1682 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA38. She was born on 16 Aug 1662 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA[s39]. She died before 1695 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA. He married SUSANNA BRECK. She was born on 10 May 1667 in Sherborn, Middlesex, Massachusetts, USA. She died on 28 May 1744 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, USA.

That his not this profile so these vitals do not belong on this profile.
