Arthur John Adams

Arthur John Adams (somtimes his middle name is found Hohn) is the son of Joseph Samuel Adams and Eliza Caroline Woodward. He may have gone by his middle name since his name is recorded as John Adams on his headstone and interment card. He was born on 31 Mar 1871 in St. Luke, London, England. John immagrated to America in 1886 when he was 14. He was married to Annie Louisa Hill on 2 Apr 1894 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah.

Together they had at least 11 children (I believe the last two I have listed may be duplicates):

Arthur Thomas Adams 15 Jan 1895

Louise Adams 15 Jan 1897 Married Name: Malquist

Alfred Lionel Ramon Adams 1 Aug 1899

Clifton Lawrence Adams 1 Jan 1905

Walter Quinton Adams 9 Dec 1903

Gladys Matilda Adams 12 Jan 1901 Married Name: Hancock

John Arvel Adams 30 Sep 1907

Kenneth Henry Adams 25 Feb 1910

Annie Maude Adams 25 Feb 1912

Ralph Siddaway Adams 13 Aug 1913

Virgil Larcy or Virgil Leroy Adams 4 Jun 1915


John and Annie eventually got a divorce. John remarried in 1926 to Harriet Marie Binch Hunter. He died on 11 Jul 1946 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California. He was buried on 15 Jul 1946 in the Inglewood cemetary in Los Angeles. He is buried in Plot: Cedars, Lot: B-206. His headstone can be viewed here.

This is a copy of his internment record which I received from the cemetery.
