Adams family from Liverpool

[jsearch]

 The Adams family originated from Ireland. Samuel Adams was born 1827 in Ireland. He married Jane, who"s maiden name was also Adams. at the Presbyterian Church May St Belfast 1849 Sams father was Hugh Adams and Janes was Henry Adams,we think they were brothers.
The family came over from Ireland in the 1860s. Their children were Hugh Henry,Margaret,Jane, Mary,Agnes and Sarah Ann. 
Samuel died on board the Brig Nellie in St Georges Dock , Liverpool 9 March 1876.
Hugh Henry became a known  and respected independant Methodist minister,preaching at the Hill O Zion,Cochrane St church,Everton.  The church is still standing today, but not used for methodist service now.
I would like to research the family back further and to know more about Sams life as a mariner and where he visited on the Brig Nellie or indeed more information about the ship would be of great interest to us.
 Any help or ideas for reseach would be appriciated.

Nathaniel and other Adams had a master grocer business in Liverpool, owned The Seasons residence 65 Anfield Rd, Liverpool and married the daughter of Rev William Wilkinson an local Liverpool Primitive Methodest minister. Also, connecter are his next genetaion up, being the Adams’ gravestones immediately inside the Tullyrusk cemetery gate (apparently twins Robert Adams of Ballynacoy B.1811 and Thomas Adams of Hillhead Farm, Derrykillultagh (Hillhead Lane opposite the filterbeds, off the Lisburn to Glenavy Rd, North Ireland). I believe I am a direct descendent of Thomas Adams, some of whose offspring John, Nathaniel, Thomas, Emma, Susannah, Katherine/Sarah went to Liverpool and set up a business, then dispersed around the globe. The Hillhead farm is now apparently split and owned by the McCartney’s, Ferguson’s and possibly Acheson, descendents of the Adams girls left behind after the boys left during the mid 1800’s for Liverpool and other parts of the world. To this extent, you will note I am located in Sydney, Australia and contactable via

Can i revive this post as i believe i may be in some way related?
i am an Adams, and i remeber being told a church was owned in the family in everton. Coincidence?

Robert Adams (my great grandfather, no deceased Approx age today 99) was involved in Fibrous Plaster mouldings, his son, his son, and now me, are all still involved in this.
