Oklahoma Historical Society 2100 Lincoln Blvd. 1730- A Providence Williams. My gggggg grand- parent. Also we showw that a Thomas McAdams came to the United States in 1767 from Ireland. Here are a few web sites that give information on Irish records.
Local libraries have no info.
Just a suggestion on where one might find the info. The cost is only 2 pounds for not more then 150 words. Include return postage when writing to either of these organizations. I have only limited information on him since he arrived in Nova Scotia. Is there someplace in England that has records pertaining to persons in the service.
