Another Adams who owned a hotel is mentioned in Bass River Township in
the New Jersey Courier
of December 30th, 1868. It describes him thusly:
"Frank Adams keeps a small but comfortable hotel, dispenses whiskey, Ayer's medicines,
post office,
and sausage meat with a liberal hand, and keep a nice little home for strangers.".
Although not in Batsto or Washington Township, I pass through Bass River en route to Batsto and
thought this may be a related family...one never knows!!
