    3. Can someone help me find the families of 2 McDADE bothers b abt early 1900's who may have lived in MI or their ch may have lived MI, poss Detroit area. Looking for missing cousins, McDADE brothers, Paul Davis McDADE and Durwood / Durward ( Hall ) McDADE who had a sister, Retha McDADE, who married Homer ROBERS and lived in the Hickman, KY area. Their father was Albert Bennett McDADE who was prob b abt 1872/3 in KY or TN.Their mother was Alice Elner HALL. A B is listed as Bennett A McDADE on the 1880 Census of Madison Co, TN (Jackson area) and is enumerated with his siblings who range in age from 21 to 2. I've been told that Alice HALL McDADE d after 1935, poss as late as the early '40's. It is thought that Albert Bennett and Alice may be buried in Rush Cemetery, a small cemetery between Cayce and Crutchfield, KY. Retha McDADE was b 1904 and I don't know whether Paul and Hall are older or younger than Retha. Retha married Homer ROBERTS in 1930 and had 2 sons: David Homer ROBERTS b 1935 and James Wallace "Doc" McDADE b 1937. Paul was in the Navy and is believed to have lived in CA. He married, poss in CA, and had several ch, prob both boys and girls. I was told that some of his ch may have gone to Michigan. Paul may have moved back to KY after leaving the Navy. He died in McCracken Co, KY (Paducah area) in 1991 according to Ky death records. Hall McDADE may have gone to Detroit. When ? Family ? Appreciate any additions, clues, corrections, help, hints, ideas, suggestions in my attempt to contact the families / descendants of either Paul or Hall as I am trying to complete a compilation of the descendants of their G gf, William McDADE, b 1805 NC.
