Additional Information

Adam ZUMWALT:

Born: 01 FEB 1790

Notes:

Adam Zumwalt married Nancy Caton, 6 May 1813, in St. Charles Co., Missouri. In Pioneer Families of Missouri, by Bryan and Rose there are numerous mentions of Adam Zumwalt.
"Adam Zumwalt came to Missouri in 1797. He placed his family and $800 worth of goods, with his stock, consisting of 30 head of cattle, 11 sheep, and 12 horses, on a board a flat-boat, and came down the Ohio and up the Mississippi river to St. Charles county with his clumsy craft."
This Adam Zumwalt, son of Jacob, already had a family when he came to Missouri in 1797. His children were : John, Elizabeth, Andrew, Rachel, Mary, Catharine, Jonathan, and Solomon. John Zumwalt, a brother of Adam, settled on Darst's Bottom, in St. Charles county, in 1806. The names of his children were: George, John, Barbara, Mary Elizabeth, ADAM, Andrew, Jacob, Henry and William.
It is most likely that this Adam Zumwalt was the son of John Zumwalt and Elizabeth Conrad. Some sources give Nancy Caton's name as Nancy Elizabeth.
Adam Zumwalt and Nancy Caton married in 1813 in St. Charles Co., Missouri. It seems most likely that the majority of their children, from 1813 to 1850, would have been born in Missouri and the rest in Texas.
