1906 Obituary American Fork, Utah County
Feb. 23--
After an illness of only three days, Joshua Adams, one of the three first settlers of American Fork, died yesterday afternoon.
Joshua Adams was born at Bathurst, Bathurst county Canada, Sept. 26, 1833. He was the son of Arza and Sabina Clark Adams. His father's family was among the first to accept the faith of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in Canada. They emigrated to Missouri in 1839. Mr. Adams was baptized into the Church in 1843, when but 10 years of age.
He knew the Prophet Joseph Smith well and at one time heard the Prophet preach to the Iowa Indians in their own tongue. He was working the fields nearby when the Prophet Joseph was assassinated by the mob at Carthage jail and it was his father who carried the first news of the [Prophet's] death to the Saints in Nauvoo.
Mr. Adams came with his father's family to Utah in 1849, locating on Mill creek, near Salt Lake City. One year later, they with two other families, moved to American Fork. These three families being the first settlers to locate at this place.
Deceased had always been a strong, healthy man until two years ago, when his health began to fail, but he was not compelled to go to his bed until three days before his death. He was always a kind friend and a good neighbor, always answering to the call of those in need.
He held many Church offices, from Deacon to High Priest. He was the husband of three wives, one of whom, Mary Hoggard Adams, survives him. Mr. Adams was the father of 32 children, 11 boys and 21 girls, 20 of whom are still living. At the present time there are 69 living grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
During the early days in Utah when the Indians were so troublesome to the white settlers, Mr. Adams was one of the first to volunteer his services in defense of the scattered settlements, and served through several years.
Aside from his grandchildren and children, he leaves two brothers and two sisters, one of each of whom live in American Fork.
The funeral will be held at 1 o'clock Monday in the First ward chapel.

The pulpit and railings were draped in mourning and the floral offerings were profuse. Bishop James T Gardner conducted the services.
A number of speakers made addresses in which each of them paid tribute to the integrity and honesty of the departed. A large number of carriages followed the remains to the cemetery, where the last sad rites were observed.
