The scope of the photo section of this website is normally
limited to pictures of the descendants of Hiram A. McAdams.
However, there are times when the historical significance of a
photo merits its inclusion. This is a picture of Jane Evalina
McAdams. She was the 9th child of John McAdams, Sr., the sister
of John McAdams, Jr. and the aunt of Hiram A. McAdams. Jane
Evalina was born on 2 Oct 1820 in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and died
in Nov 1906 in Cherokee County, Texas. She married Jackson Smith
abt. 1837 in Shelby County, Texas. Photo courtesy of Audrie

Jackson Smith. By 1847 Jackson settled the family in what is
now Cherokee Co. Jackson came to Texas from Illinois in time to
serve in the Revolution in Capt. Burriet's Co. of Gen. Thomas J.
Rusk's Brigade and he claimed to have guarded Santa Ana after
the Battle of San Jacinto. In 1838 Jackson scouted for Gen. Rusk
when troops were sent to Cherokee Co. following the Killough
Massacre in which 17 people were killed, supposedly by Indians.
During this service Jackson located land on Gum Creek where he
later settled. It was a portion of this land that he set aside
to establish the town of Jacksonville. He ran a blacksmith's
shop there. During the Civil War Jackson joined Confederate
forces for four years of service. He was a Master Mason and the
family attended the Methodist Church. In 1987 a Texas Historical
Commission marker was placed on his grave to honor him as the
founder of the town. A tragic accident in 1870 claimed the life
of Jackson and Evalina's son, Bill. A circus -troop was
performing in Jacksonville when a disturbance broke out between
some of the performers and local people. Federal troops were
called in and they captured and killed a murderer. In the
confusion Bill Smith was accidentally shot as he was riding out
of town on his horse. He was probably buried in the Smith Family
Cemetery which can not now be located. Photo courtesy of Audrie
