Although, contrary to my experience, the house number system on Bay St. (Springfield, Mass.) seems to have the odd numbers on the 'Right' as they 'go up'. I believe #99 is one of those vacant lots, where houses use to be.

I do not subscribe to Ancestry.com, but, do access their 'Library Edition' at our local Library. On my next trip, I will confirm some things. The data I found, I got from other Free sources.

Jos. Sumner Adams and Sara P. Rumery married 29, Sept. 1862, Saco, York County, Maine.

The 1900 Census (Springfield, Ma.) reveals they had 5 children of whom 3 were surviving.

The 1865 Massachusetts State Census shows 2 children: Son - John Sumner Adams, age 2 years, and Daughter - Ettie Belle, age 3 months. Neither of these children appear in the U. S. 1870 Census, so they likely did not survive.

I found recorded births for 3 other children (all girls):

Allice G. Adams (likely Gertrude), born Feb. 5, 1868

Martha R. (Rumery) Adams, born June 28, 1870

Bessie Louise Adams, born Aug. 22, 1874

(These three girls are the children surviving in 1900. The three were recorded in the 1880 Census. Gertrude and Martha R. were living with their parents in 1900).

Bessie Louise Adams married Edwin F. Lyford, a 41 year old Springfield Lawyer, around 1899.

Martha Rumery Adams, (a Teacher in 1900), married Frederick Haile Stebbins, also a Lawyer, Nov. 12, 1902, in Springfield. They had a son, Frederick A. Stebbins, in 1911, who was also to become a Lawyer. (JSA really 'lawyered up')!

Gertrude (likely Allice G. Adams) was single and worked in the City Clerk's Office in 1900. In 1930, Gertrude was 62 years old, single, and living with her elderly parents. In 1940, she lived with her sister, Bessie.

In the 1940 Census, all three of J.S. Adams' daughters were living in Springfield, as well as, the only grandchild, Frederick A. Stebbins. The daughters, who had married, were widows and seemingly well off.

I hope this is not too tedious and makes "JSA" more interesting.
