Young Adams of

The ‘Bounty

There is a new Adams of the “Bounty”. Here I is—Norfolk Island’s latest John Adams, sixth genen tion descendant from the original John Adams the “Bounty”, through his grandson, Josiah Adaira who landed on Norfolk from Pitcairn during O big move in 1856. The latest bearer of a famoo name is the son of Guildford and Joy Adams, Anson Bay. Mrs. Adams is originally from Net Zealand. The last Adams to take the name John on Norfolk was John R. S. Adams, who is present in his fifties and still lives there. I descended through one of Josiah’s brothers. T 1 original John Adams was the assumed name Alexander Smith, the only mutineer to survive W quarrelling and bloodshed of the first years Pitcairn. Smith-cum-Adams emerged a spiritual changed man and assumed leadership of the smu community, laying its deep religious and moi( foundations.
