He was the son of Robert Adams and Charlotte Belton Pickett Adams, and the grandson of Joel Adams and Grace Weston Adams. Robert married Eveline McCord of Philadelphia, the great grandniece of Betsy Ross.[1][2] Adams served in the mounted infantry unit, The Charleston Light Dragoons, 4th Regiment South Carolina Cavalry. He enlisted on April 10, 1861, two days before the Confederates fired on the Federal troops occupying Fort Sumter, on April 12, 1861, in Charleston, South Carolina. He served in many engagements and was wounded and captured at the Battle of Old Church, Virginia on May 30, 1864 while under the service of Brig. General Matthew C. Butler, in General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. Adams is the first cousin of Governor James Hopkins Adams of South Carolina, who was a staunch advocate of limited government and states' rights. Adams is the first cousin (once removed) of Lt. Colonel Warren Adams, C.S.A. who was the commander of Confederate forces at Battery Wagner. He is the great grandfather of United States Ambassador Weston Adams (ambassador), and the great-great grandfather of filmmaker Julian Adams, both of whom portrayed Robert in the feature film The Story of Robert Adams.[3] References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.mccordbibles.com/ann_shaw_&_dvd_mccord.htm |title=McCord bibles, Betsy Ross |work=mccordbibles.com |accessdate=November 15, 2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140911002555/http://www.mccordbibles.com/ann_shaw_%26_dvd_mccord.htm |archivedate=September 11, 2014 |df= }} 2. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0339743/trivia |title=IMDb The Last Confederate trivia |work=imdb.com |accessdate=November 15, 2013}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0339743/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1. |title=The Last Confederate:The Story of Robert Adams (2007) |work=IMDB.com |accessdate=November 13, 2013}} External links
