Kathryn Holland Braund, the editor of a recent scholarly edition of Adair's book includes a fifty-plus page description of Adair's life in America, and the fact that virtually nothing is known of his personal history or family. He wrote about his life with the Chickasaw with the clear implication that the had a Chickasaw wife and children. When not with the Indians, he lived at New Windsor, South Carolina. He hoped to take a Chickasaw delegation with him when he went to London to get his book published. The last record of him is a signature on a lease in 1774. She points out that there is no evidence for any of the theories regarding his birth and parents. There is no evidence to connect James Adair the author with the Cherokee Adair family.
