Woodsmen of the World
1900 US census shows birthplace Canada, married to Theresa and son, Morgan L. Occupation, farmer.
Merced Express, 08 Oct 1904, p3c7
Edward Adams died at his home in Hornitos last Saturday after an illness of two weeks - brain fever and paralysis probably resulting from an injury received last May. He was then kicked by a horse and his skull was fractured, the brain protruding. The wounds were considered fatal at the time but Mr. Adams apparently recovered slowly, and regained his strength to such a degree that he resumed active work a few weeks ago. He was a farmer and stock raiser having a herd of eighty head at the time of his death. The deceased was thirty five years old and a native of Canada, and came to California when a young child with his parents who settled near Hornitos. The surviving relatives are his wife, an eight year old son, father, three brothers and three sisters. The funeral took place Monday, a large number attending, not only from the deceased's immediate neighborhood but also from Merced, Snelling, Mariposa and Mt Bullion. Religious services were held at the house, Rev Mr. H Neat officiating and at the grave the burial rites of the Woodmen of the World were performed, J J Griffin and F A Robinson reading the service. The deceased was a member of the local camp and had a $1000 life insurance policy in order. - Star.
