I am trying to find info on the Elijah WADE family that appears on the 1840 Morgan Co AL census, in the 6th Regiment area. This portion of Morgan Co (twp 6, 7,8) became part of Marshall Co on 12-5-1840. Elijah and his family were also on the 1850 and 1860 Marshall Co AL census. Elijah WADE m. Rebecca HAMES on 12-30-1823 in Hall Co GA. Rebecca was b. abt. 1802 SC and was the dau. of John HAMES and Charity JASPER. I think Elijah and Rebecca lived in GA from 1823 to 1825 (prob. Hall Co.) and moved to SC abt. 1833 (prob. in Union, Cherokee or Spartanburg Co) as they had children b. in both GA and SC. Known children of my Elijah WADE were: 1. Elizabeth WADE b. abt. 1825 GA, m. Nicholas BLAKE in Marshall Co in 1842 2. Unknown son b. bet. 1826 and 1830 3. Margaret WADE b. abt. 1827 AL, m. John BLAKE in Marshall Co in 1842 4. Nancy Caroline WADE b. abt. 1830, m. Jesse MATHIS in Marshall Co in 1847 5. Martha Ann WADE b. abt. 1833 SC, m. Claiborn C. WATERS in Marshall Co in 1854 6. William WADE (my gg-grandfather) b. abt. 1834 AL, m. Catharine CRAIG in Marshall Co in 1855 7. Unknown son b. bet. 1836 and 1840 8. Elijah WADE Jr and Elisha WADE (twins) b. abt. 1842 AL, Elijah Jr. m. Eliza BLAKE in Marshall Co in 1862 I am really interested in finding the parents of Elijah WADE. The last I can find of William WADE and his wife Catharine CRAIG is the 1860 Marshall Co census. Their son James appears on the 1870 Marshall Co census with his grandmother Nancy CRAIG. Any help finding William or Catharine would be very appreciated. Thank you for any help you may provide. Eldon
