Early lifeAdams was born on May 4, 1772 in New York City. He was the fifth of six children born to John and Abigail (née Smith) Adams.[1] In September 1774, two years after his birth, his father was appointed one of the delegates to the First Continental Congress from Massachusetts Bay. In 1784, his mother traveled to Europe to accompany her husband on his diplomatic missions including while he was U.S. Minister to the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. While both of his parents were abroad, Thomas Adams lived with relatives in Haverhill, Massachusetts. In 1790, he graduated from Harvard University where he had studied law, according to his family's wishes. His elder brother, John Quincy Adams, however, did not believe he had sufficient skills to practice law successfully.[2] CareerAdams accompanied his brother John Quincy to the Netherlands and Prussia, serving as his secretary from 1794 to 1798. After marrying in 1805, he settled in Quincy, Massachusetts and Adams served as his town's representative to the Massachusetts legislature from 1805 to 1806. Four years later, Adams was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1810.[3] In 1811, he was appointed chief justice of the Circuit Court of Common Pleas for the Southern Circuit of Massachusetts. Like his brother Charles, Thomas had problems with alcoholism.[4] Personal lifeIn 1805, he married Ann Harrod (1774–1845) of Haverhill,[5] and the relationship produced eight children in only eleven years.[6] Adams died on March 13, 1832 in Quincy, Massachusetts, deeply in debt.[7] References1. ^{{cite book |last1=Bober |first1=Natalie S. |title=Abigail Adams: Witness to a Revolution |date=2010 |publisher=Simon and Schuster |isbn=9781439115497 |page=19 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=GEhnbWtusOkC&pg=PR19 |accessdate=29 January 2019 |language=en}} 2. ^{{cite book |last1=Wead |first1=Doug |title=The Raising of a President: The Mothers and Fathers of Our Nation's Leaders |date=2005 |publisher=Simon and Schuster |isbn=9781416513070 |page=89 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BI22SihvFJwC&pg=PA89 |accessdate=29 January 2019 |language=en}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Book of Members, 1780–2010: Chapter A|url=http://www.amacad.org/publications/BookofMembers/ChapterA.pdf|publisher=American Academy of Arts and Sciences|accessdate=6 April 2011}} 4. ^{{cite book |last1=Cheever |first1=Susan |title=Drinking in America: Our Secret History |date=2015 |publisher=Grand Central Publishing |isbn=9781455513864 |page=3 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Tgt4BgAAQBAJ&pg=PT73 |accessdate=29 January 2019 |language=en}} 5. ^{{cite book |last1=Treat |first1=John Harvey |title=The Treat Family: A Genealogy of Trott, Tratt, and Treat for Fifteen Generations, and Four Hundred and Fifty Years in England and America, Containing More Than Fifteen Hundred Families in America ... |date=1893 |publisher=Salem Press publishing & printing Company |page=332 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=qzcEAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA332 |accessdate=29 January 2019 |language=en}} 6. ^{{cite web |title=Adams Biographical Sketches |url=https://www.masshist.org/adams/biographies#TBA |website=www.masshist.org |publisher=Massachusetts Historical Society |accessdate=29 January 2019}} 7. ^{{cite book |last1=Parsons |first1=Lynn Hudson |title=John Quincy Adams |date=1999 |publisher=Rowman & Littlefield Publishers |isbn=9781442202887 |page=220 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=gfxuAAAAQBAJ&pg=PA220 |accessdate=29 January 2019 |language=en}} External links
