Macoupin County, Illinois - Biographical sketches, 1879 (part 13 of 15)

Jefferson Adams

ONE among the oldest settlers in Macoupin county, was born in Henry county, Kentucky, November 22d, 1823. He was the son of Horatio and Sytha Adams. His father was also a native of Henry county, Kentucky, and married at the age of twenty-two, and for eight years afterwards followed farming in that state. In 1829 he emigrated with his family to Illinois, and settled in Clay county, where he lived two years; then removed to Greene county, where he remained until 1835; he then came to Macoupin county, and settled in the north-east part of what is now Bird township; at that time there were very few settlers in this locality. He followed the life of a farmer, in which avocation he was very successful ; he died at the residence of his son, the subject of our sketch, near Medora, August 26th, 1873; his wife preceded him, eight months to a day. He raised a family of ten children, five boys and five girls. Mr. J. Adams being the second, he assisted his father on the farm until near of age, when he married Miss Emmiline Peebles, September 12th, 1854. She was a daughter of Bird Peebles, also an early settler of this county, and a Kentuckian by birth. They have had seven children, all of which are deceased. After Mr. Adams' marriage he began farming, his father giving him some assistance. He first began in Bird township, in the spring of 1845, where he continued until 1851, when he sold his farm, and invested the money in merchandize, and carried on a store in Carlinville until 1856; his new calling proved unsuccessful, and from 1856 to 1860, he was engaged farming. He then took a trip to the Rocky Mountains, and spent nearly a year there; on his return he began farming again in Bird township, where he was engaged until 1865; he then emigrated into the state of Iowa, with the intention of remaining, and making his home in that state, but after five years he returned to his old associates in Macoupin county. His return was in 1870. He went to Chesterfield township, where he rented two years, and afterwards moved into Shipman township. He then moved into South Otter township - this being in 1874 - where he has since remained, and followed farming. He has a neat little farm, a view of which can be seen elsewhere in this work. Mr. Adams has experienced some very narrow escapes during his lifetime. The following incident occurred to him in 1854, when a passenger upon the steamboat " Kate Kearney," plying between St. Louis and Alton. The boiler of the steamer exploded, killing between forty and fifty persons. Scarcely any of the boat remained but the hull. Many others of the passengers were severely injured, but Mr. Adams escaped without a scratch. He is a republican in politics; both himself and wife are members of the Methodist Church.

Thomas Mahan

One of the leading farmers and stock-raisers of South Otter township, was born in Rush county, Indiana, January 6th, 1837. His father, James Mahan, was a native of Bourbon county, Kentucky, and emigrated to Indiana about 1834, where he lived and was extensively engaged in handling stock until 1850, when he moved farther west, arriving at Waverly, Morgan county, Illinois, in the fall of the same year. The following spring he came to Macoupin county, and settled in South Otter township ; he lived in the same vicinity and followed farming until his death, in 1868. The subject ef our sketch was the third child in a family of ten children; during his minority he assisted his father on the farm, and went to school during the winter months, whereby he received a fair education. At the age of twenty-four he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Ditson, a native of Macoupin county, and daughter of Jesse Ditson. They have a family of eight children. As Mr. Mahan was raised and educated to farm life and the handling of stock, he has made that his exclusive occupation. He has a fine farm, which is well adapted for stock raising, a view of which can be seen elsewhere in this book. In politics he is a staunch republican, and cast his first vote for the martyred President, Abraham Lincoln. He bas filled the office of collector in his township two terms. In 1878 he was elected supervisor; he received the whole vote of his township, as he had no opposition. He is a member of the Christian church. Mr. Mahan has lived a truthful and honorable life, and stands well in the community in which he lives.
