My direct ADAMS family line is primarily found in and around Enniskillen, County Fermanagh
I. John ADAMS b. c1810
II. James ADAMS b. c1835 d. 1882 Enniskillen m. 1854 Enniskillen, County Fermanagh Alice SHANNON
III. William ADAMS m. 1882 Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Mary Jane HUESTON
I located an 1867 birth record for Philip ADAMS s/o James & Alice ADAMS shown above. This lists them as residing in what appears to be Rossawella as shown in the attached file. I have not been able to find this location, so I assume my spelling may not be correct.
I have also been unable to locate any information on John ADAMS and do not know how to proceed.......
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I can be reached directly at GenealogyLighthouse@cox.net

Link here to James Adams marriage in 1854. Bride appears to be Alice Sheenan in this document. Spelling varies in the childrens births.

Townland is Carry (Parish of Deryvullan). John will have been moving around to follow the available work. Not uncommon. Makes the family hard to trace. Is this Alice and 2 children in 1901:
