Birth*say 1725 He was born say 1725. 
Marriage*say 1748 He married Agnes Walker at Virginia say 1748. 
Birth of Son4 Feb 1750 His son Joel Adams was born on 4 Feb 1750 at Virginia.1 
Deed16 Jul 1754 He was granted a deed by Henry Walker, witnessed by Edmond Lilly, Jeremiah Dumas and Joseph Culpepper of Morgan Co. GA on 16 Jul 1754 at Anson Co., North Carolina,

Book B, Page 517: HENRY WALKER of Anson Co., to JAMES ADAMS for ten pistoles ...land on S side Pee Dee, below the mouth of Rockey River, 135 A... HENRY WALKER (SEAL), Wit EDMOND LILLY, JEREMIAH DUMAS, JOSEPH CULPEPPER.2 
Research note*1 Jun 2006 From Wallace Adams-Riley:
     My father ...after having come across a published abstract, hired a couple of different folks to look through the records of Anson Co., N.C., and there found two deeds that were clearly our family:
     The first deed (the abstract for which he had come across) is from the 1750's wherein Henry Walker deeds land on the Rocky River to James Adams; and,
     in the second deed, from the 1760's, the same land is deeded by Agnes (or perhaps "Agra" -- hard to read)) Culpepper and a William Adams to a second party.
     Matching up the information in these deeds with the naming pattern of Joel's children (his first son being named James, and his third son being named Henry Walker), and with the family story, we feel confident that these are "our people," as they say. My "discovery" of the naming pattern in the Culpepper family (Joel, Joel Adams) seems to fit nicely with this line of thought, i.e., that Joel's step-brothers or half-brothers Malachi and Joseph III both named sons for him.3 
Biography*14 Feb 2007 James Adams, the progenitor of the Adams of "The Fork", Richland County, South Carolina, came as an immigrant from England to Virginia prior to 1746. He married Agnes Walker, daughter of Henry Walker, and they had two sons... James and Joel....4

Biography*14 Feb 2007 According to tradition, Joel Adams ran away from home when he was very young because of an intense dislike for his stepfather. Apparently he was about eighteen years of age when he came to lower Richland County in 1768 and obtained a grant of land adjoining the property of William Weston. Although lacking a formal education, Joel Adams was a very intelligent, hardworking, courageous and ambitious man of the highest character. By his own merits he amassed a fortune....3
