Rosemary Cloughley at the Grave of Margaret Adams--a Real DAR

Margaret Dickson Adams was a real Daughter of the American Revolution. She was the daughter of Josiah Dickson, who came to America from Scotland. During the Revolution, he helped carry ammunition to the forts in Kentucky for General George Rogers Clark. Captured by Indians, Josiah was later sold to the British and not released until after the Battle of Yorktown.

On June 3, 1922, four carloads of Sacramento Chapter members traveled to Madison to mark Mrs. Adams' grave in the Cottonwood Cemetery. She was the grandmother of Elizabeth Adams Gundrum, Organizing Regent of the Sacramento Chapter. Mrs. Gundrum is also buried in this small country cemetery.
