The childhood home of Mr. Samuel P. ADAMS was in the vicinity of Rochester, Monroe Co., N. Y., where he was born July 15, 1823. His father, Dr. John ADAMS, was a noted physician and surgeon, and married Miss Sarah PORTER, who, like himself, was a native of Berkshire, Mass. The family is an old and highly respected one, of English extraction, and was first represented on this side of the Atlantic probably during the Colonial days.The parents of our subject after their marriage, leaving New England, settled in Henrietta, N. Y., but two years later removed to Lyons, in Wayne County, where the father followed the practice of his profession many years, and where he spent his profession many years, and where he spent his declining years; the mother is also deceased.
Samuel P., our subject, was the eldest born. He attended the common schools at Lyons, and later became a clerk in a general store, which occupation he followed about four years. After this he engaged as a contractor for canals, railroads, bridges, and other public works, until making up his mind to settle in the farther West. He was married in Newark, N. Y., in 1857, to Senesa [Louisa?], daughter of Liberty and Lucy STRAW; she was born in New York in 1831.
