Bev,
I believe James P. Wade could be a possible brother to my Henry Wade of Habersham Co, GA, though there is nothing to connect them other than same locality and time period and age. But it's a very good reason to speculate and dig further.
Because James P. Wade was from Habersham Co, GA, and was of an age with my Henry Wade, I have exchanged information with other Joel Coleman Wade researchers, and have done research myself on this family. Since the Joel Coleman Wade descendants settled in that cluster of AL counties just over the Georgia line, I have concentrated my efforts on the WADES of that area who were born in the same time period as James P. Wade and Henry Wade.
That cluster of Alabama counties include: Randolph, Clay, Cleburne and Calhoun Counties (Calhoun was formerly Benton Co). In fact, Calhoun Co borders St. Clair Co, where I was born.
In Calhoun County, (Benton) there was a William Wade who died without heirs. Here is some information that another Wade researcher sent a while back:
Source:
OLD RECORDS OF ESTATES & ADMINISTRATIONS, Benton (Calhoun), County, Alabama, Vol VI, Sk through White, compiled by Cathrine Cleek Mann, and published by the Northeast Alabama Genealogical Society:
A William A Wade died in Benton Co, AL shortly before 8 Dec 1855 when an administrator was appointed to take care of his estate. He left no wife or children. His only heirs at law were:
DAVID A. WADE
SARAH E. WADE
JAMES P. WADE
SIMEON J. WADE
All of full age and residing in Benton Co, AL. William Edmundson and ELIJAH WADE witnessed the "X" marks made by the heirs when this declaration was made. At his death, William A. Wade owned 40 acres in Benton Co with some personal property. The heirs received their portion by 10 Feb 1859. ------
Of course, I believe the heirs, James P. & Sarah E., were James P. Wade and wife, Sarah "Sallie" Chandler Wade.
I can only make the broadest of guesses on the ages of all these involved, but I have flagged each of the following names with respect to both James P. & Henry Wade, looking for anyone bearing those names within the years of the ages I have guessed for them; also another Wade from Habersham who was of an age with these:
Elijah Wade - 1790 to 1834 (witness in 1855)
William A. Wade - 1790 to 1834 (died bef Dec 1855)
Simeon J. Wade - 1790 to 1834 (heir in 1855)
David A. Wade - 1790 to 1834 (heir in 1855)
Richard Wade - abt. 1807 - md Lotty Young,1827, Habersham
If anyone can add to this I would also appreciate it.
Linda
