MS Historical note: 

George Adams and his wife Elizabeth (born Dunlop), with children, emigrated from Hertfordshire to Natal in 1850. They sailed on the 'Emily' under arrangement with W. J. Irons Christian Emigration and Colonization Society. The Adams family settled at Umhlanga where George farmed intermittently, although he also worked as a government surveyor. After the death of his first wife in 1867 he married Mary Ann Henderson a year later. George Adams died at Verulam in 1900.
