From the New Jersey Courier 28 Jul 1892 At Whitesville, July 22, 1892, Judge James D. White, aged 83 years and 7 months
G.O. Adams of the Everett House
The New Jersey Courier newspaper, on July 22nd 1875, reported on hotel owner G. O. Adams: "The Everett House, G.O.Adams, proprietor, is nearly full....". I make note of this only as a possible connection to be explored between this man and the Adams who seem to have moved to Batsto, not very far from Tuckerton, at the beginning of the twentieth century. When I have time I shall endeavor to find this man on the Tuckerton census and provide more info on him and his family.

Behind this guy on Route 70 and 72 in the summer of 2013. It was impossible to see his brake lights because of the amount of stuff he had lashed to the back of his car.
