Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

George Davis Adams was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on 13 January 1854, the son of Daniel M. and Julia Ann (Davis) Adams. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1883 by Bishop W. C. Doane. He came to Marion, Indiana, from New York in 1887 and served as rector of Gethsemane until 1890. That year on 8 April, he married Bertha Bohun Devereux. He left Marion to become rector of St. Paul's Church in Riverdale, Illinois, where he remained at least through 1910. By 1920 he lived in Port Townsend, Washington, and died in 1924 with burial in Evergreen-Washelli Memorial Park in Seattle.
