John Quincy __ (5)

I believe the answer is:

adams

(Other definitions for adams that I've seen before include "Richard --, Watership Down author" , "revolutionary leader" , "Father and son were American presidents" , "Of untidy appearance" , "Father and son US presidents" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
