Where in the world did someone come up with the idea that Adam Dunsmore/Dinsmore came to Bumcombe Co., NC from Wilkes Co., NC?
I would ask for your source of where you derived your information, and even challenge Bill Dinsmore's source, but would not expect to receive any concrete information.If I did, it would be the standard, "I got it from the internet or so-in-so." Never a creditable source!Folks, this is nothing more than a vicious cycle of the same old garbage!
The problem with the internet is everyone wants to spout off about what great information they have and do their best to post recycled information and sometimes inaccurate information that unsuspecting individuals will take as gospel and place it in their family history.No one wants to spend the time to work the old fashion way and document their sources.If we have no creditable concrete source, remain silent.
Again, if we really have nothing to say, keep quite.If you can support what you have to say, then post it.
Second, it is only theroized (hearsay) that Adam Dunsmore/Dinsmore is buried on the Red Stone Arsenal grounds.No one has ever been able to locate a grave marker or point to an impression in the ground and say "this is the grave of Adam Dunsmore/Dinsmore."Although, there are marked graves of Adam's ancestors buried in this area, to include a large unmarked section known as the slave graveyard.
However, I will conclude that Adam is most likely buried in this area, but we still have only heresay, NO PROOF.So, why does everyone post information that states that he IS buried on the Red Stone Arsneal?
As they say on the TV series "Dragnet", "just the facts, just the facts."
