John Adams Sr. (February 8, 1691 – May 25, 1761) was the father of the second U.S. President, John Adams, and grandfather of the sixth President, John Quincy Adams. He was, in turn, a fifth-generation descendant of Henry Adams, who emigrated from Braintree, Essex, in England to Massachusetts Bay Colony in about 1638. He was also descended from John and Priscilla Alden. Adams worked as a farmer and cobbler (also called a cord-wainer or shoemaker) for most of his life.
