He died in 1878. They lived in LeFlore Co. She is enrolled as an intermarried White (#1270). Try as I might, I couldn't find Cunningham Wade anwhere, until I ran across Alfred Wade, governor of the Choctaw nation from 1857-1858, son of John Wade, one of the signers of the Dancing Rabbit Treaty. Seems John had a son, brother to Alfred, named Cunningham. I'm in Virginia, and have limited access to Choctaw materials. Can anyone help me confirm that these two Cunningham Wades are the same?
