I found a great book up the Atown Library, about the Mr Adams, whom our suburb was named after! He subdivided the area, and was not just a property developer, but a very prominent citizen: campaigning to open the first public school in Newcastle, and to allow a mental hospital in Watt St (even though the church was opposed to it!) He owned great areas of land, including Whickham, when it was called Bullock Island.
