ABIGAIL ADAMS

by Dr. Lawrence Wilson

Abigail Adams played a vital role in the founding of the American nation. She was born in the colony of Massachusetts in 1744 and died in 1818. She lived through the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) and wrote extensively about life during the war.

This is a very short article about an amazingl lady. We hope to expand it in the future.

The information in this article does not always agree with other historical sources. I am told the truth about America has been altered and covered up, and needs to be corrected.

EARLY LIFE

Abigail was born into a poor farming family. The family was Hebrew, as were many in early America. This fact has been covered up by the alien group some call the thugs or satans. They do not want people to know the true religious origins of America.

Her parents came to America from Eastern Europe, as did some of the colonists. Early American colonists came from many nations.

Abigail's parents made sure she could read and write very well. She also had access to many books that belonged to her father.

She read widely. Among the subjects she enjoyed were ancient history, government, law, philosophy, theology, Shakespeare, and the classics. Thanks to her reading, she became easily the best-informed and most scholarly first lady America has ever had.

Except for reading, Abigail enjoyed few distractions as a child and young adult.

MARRIAGE

At age 20, she married John Adams, a young attorney who was every bit as scholarly as she was. Together they studied the governments of every known society in history. He would later become one of the greatest presidents of the United States – with her great help.

John and Abigail had three sons and two daughters. Abigail did most of the childrearing because her husband was frequently called away from home on business. He held a number of positions in the colonial government and was deeply involved in the dispute with Great Britain that ended in the American Revolutionary War.

LETTERS AND OTHER WORK

As a result of their frequent separations, Abigail started writing letters to her husband, and he to her, often every few days. These have become very famous in American history.

John consulted Abigail on many matters of government, the impending revolt against England, and many other political subjects of the day. She not only commented on the issues.

She also kept him informed about the sentiments and activities in their home colony of Massachusetts. These letters continued all through the Revolutionary War and provide some of the best documentation of life during the war.

Abigail Adams was one of the main authors of the Articles and Bylaws Of The United States. These excellent documents guided America for 10 years. I am told they worked very well, the opposite of what is taught about them.

Then they were destroyed by the alien group some call the thugs, rogues or satans. Now America has the much inferior document called the US Constitution.

She continued to write back and forth to several friends, often commenting on political and legal issues that arose in the new American nation. However, her letters have been altered somewhat by the alien thugs, as have a number of books about her life.

Abigail Adams will be remembered as one of the greatest founders of America.
