To his wife Elizabeth, he bequeathed the land on which he  lived, another tract of land on Difficult Creek and as much  personal estate as she thought proper during her life and widowhood. After her death or remarriage, his estate was to  be sold and the proceeds divided among his children, with the share of his dead son Robert Wade, Jr. to be distributed  among his orphans. Son John Wade, who already had  received his portion of the estate, was bequeathed twenty  shillings for the purchase of a ring. Son Stephen Wade, who  also had already gotten his share of his father's assets, was  bequeathed a slave. He left a another slave to his son Stephen  and his wife Susanna, who was to go to their son Robert Wade, after their deaths. He willed a slave to his daughter-in-law Ann Wade, widow of Robert Wade, who was to go to her son Hampton Wade when  she remarried or when he became 21 years old. He left  one slave to his son Charles Wade and another one to  Robert Wade, son of Charles Wade, to be kept by  Charles until his death. He bequeathed 50 pounds to his daughter Mary Hunt, having previously given her a slave. A similar bequest went to his daughter Sarah Stokes. He left  his mill and land on the north side of Difficult Creek and another tract on the south side of Difficult Creek to his son  Edward Wade, along with some slaves. Edward had no  children at the time. He made a bequest of 4 pounds to his  grandson Benjamin Walker, to be applied to his schooling.  He left a slave to his grandson Robert Wade, son of  Hampton and Jean Wade. He bequeathed the land upon  which he lived, which was on Staunton River, and some land  on Difficult Creek to his grandson Robert Wade, son of Robert Wade, deceased. Son Edward Wade was to manage  this property for the grandson until he became 21 years old and see that young Robert received six years of education. He left five pounds or a horse of that value to his nephew  Stephen Jones. He appointed his son Edward Wade,  Memucan Hunt and William Stokes as executors and signed the will in the presence of Thomas Cobbs,  Susannah Cobbs and John Bradley. The heir-at-law William Wade was present when the will was proved and  had no objection to it. (transcript, WADE WAID WAIDE.) The description of William Wade as heir-at-law indicates  that he was the eldest son and legal heir under the law of primogeniture who had to agree to its terms. He probably  was not included in the will because he already had  received sufficient property from his father. The family of  Robert Wade, Sr. of Halifax County, described in his will, were wife Elizabeth Wade; son Robert Wade, who was dead, leaving a widow named Ann and two sons, Hampton  and Robert Wade; son John Wade; son Stephen, whose wife was named Susannah and who had a son, Robert Wade;  son Charles Wade, who had a son named Robert Wade;  daughter Mary Hunt; daughter Sarah Stokes; son Edward  Wade, who had no children in 1767; an unnamed daughter,  who married a man named Walker and left a son, Benjamin Walker; son Hampton Wade, whose wife was named Jean and who had a son named Robert Wade; and the heir at law William Wade. (Halifax County, Virginia, Will Book O, page  218, abstract, Shirley Wilcox, THE WADE QUARTERLY, Volume 7, Issue 4, March 1981.) By naming nephew Stephen Jones as a legatee, Robert Wade, Sr. indicated that either he had a sister married to a Jones or that his wife Elizabeth had a sister married to a Jones. Stephen Jones could not be the a son of a  brother of Elizabeth Wade, whose maiden name was Hampton. , (hereafter cited as VA Halifax Will, Robert Wade).     to be continued:     belva harris cauthen harris dna group 8--------26910
