The annual Hiram A. McAdams family reunion was held on Sunday, April 30, 2000 at the McAdams Reunion Grounds. The Ruth McAdams Cole family hosted the event.

Family and guests started arriving at 9:00 A.M., and by the time the program began at 11:00, 140 members of the McAdams clan were present.  The program consisted of a brief look at the genealogy of the McAdams family, going back to John McAdams, Sr., who was born in Ireland in 1779 and arrived in Texas in the early 1830’s.

After the usual reunion feast and much visiting, the focus moved across the road to the McAdams Cemetery where the Huntsville SAR chapter marked the grave of Kelly Edgar McAdams.

On the day before the reunion, two family members found and photographed the burial site and what is possibly the original home site of John McAdams, Sr. The links below are to photographs of the burial site and home site.
