George Washington Adams

(詳細はJohn Quincy Adams, the sixth President of the United States. He had a troubled life and died of apparent suicide at age 28.〔Shepherd, Jack, ''Cannibals of the Heart: A Personal Biography of Louisa Catherine and John Quincy Adams'', New York, McGraw-Hill 1980〕
== Biography ==
Born in Berlin, the capital of the Kingdom of Prussia, George Washington Adams was the eldest son of John Quincy Adams, the sixth president of the United States, who was then serving as an diplomatic representative of the United States, and his English-born wife Louisa Catherine Adams.〔Lewis L. Gould, ''American First Ladies: Their Lives and Their Legacy'' (2014), p. 47〕 George was named for the first U.S. president, George Washington, which angered the boy's grandfather John Adams, who took umbrage at his son noting the first president over himself for the naming of his first-born.〔Ellis, Joseph J. ''First Family: John and Abigail Adams''. New York: Random House, 2010: 217. ISBN 9780307389992〕
Adams graduated from Harvard University in the Class of 1821 and studied law. After briefly practicing law, he ran for state office. He was elected to the House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1826 and served one year. In 1828, Adams served on the Boston City Council.〔(Massachusetts Historical Society-Adams Biographies )〕 He wrote a pamphlet "An Oration delivered at Quincy, on the Fifth of July, 1824."〔(Oration-July 5, 1824-Quincy, Massachusetts )〕
He disappeared on June 9, 1829 while on board the ''Benjamin Franklin'' in Long Island Sound during passage from Boston to Washington, DC. His body washed ashore on June 13, 1829.〔Shepherd, Jack, ''Cannibals of the Heart: A Personal Biography of Louisa Catherine and John Quincy Adams'', New York, McGraw-Hill 1980〕 Earlier that day he had exhibited delusions, asking the captain to return to shore and declaring the other passengers were conspiring against him. Many historians believe that he committed suicide.
