Hi I have only the initials of C. T. Cade. Here's the site where I heard of him: http://block.dynip.com/wtblockjr/opelousa.htm I'm wondering if the Sarah Cade that was married to James Taylor White, my relative, was related to him. James was b. 1798 and Sarah b. 1795 in NC married 1/26/1813 in St. Martin Parish (which I think is the same as old Opelousas Parish) LA. So, the location is correct. Charles Taylor Cade would no doubt be a younger generation. But he could be a son or grandson, and namesake, of the C. T. Cade in the article. The Taylor name is also a suspicious recurrence, that seems to go back to NC or VA earlier in the 1700's. Let me know you thoughts after you read the article. Thanks so much for writing. Maybe we can make some sense of all this. Jan Garland Betty Bordenave wrote: > > Dear Ms. Garland: > I have a Charles Taylor Cade in my database.However he died 3Jun1912 > @Mineral Wells, TX.
