I have sent for the marriage cert and awaiting its return. I am particularly interested in the 1861 census. William ran away to the army and changed his name to Henry Willian Adams and married my ggrandmother. It is believed he was only 14 at he time of joining army and hence would not be on census of 1861 but his parents would be.
