• Notes

  Smyrna Times - August 12, 1868 - Obituary: "This week we record the death of an old citizen - Mr Dady. He was a resident of this town for about twenty years; was remarkably industrious and frugal, dividing his time between his shoe bench and his garden, (being a very successful horticulturalist, ) and by honest labor in an humble way acquired a little property that was the care of his declining years. Few men take life more evenly than Mr. D. did. He was at the head of the little society of Old School Baptists of this town and was an earnest member. He claimed the ability to foretell the state of the weather, and invariably predicted the number of snow storms that would fall each winter, but we believe his predictions were rarely verified. Though excentric in his views, no man could be possessed of a truer honest of purpose. He was born in Chester co., Pa." Adam died in Smyrna, Delaware at the age of 75 years. He was buried in Bryn Zion Baptist Cemetery in Kenton, Delaware. Submitted on 30 Oct 2000 by Marlene Koutoufaris,CMS 1849. Entered from GEDCOM.
