Mike, I just came across your WADE email that I had skipped over while out of town, and realized that you and I are both descended from Franklin CoVA WADE and CANNADAY families. Guess I'll just call you Cuzn. I am 1st cousin, 3 times removed, from a Martha Ann CANNADAY who was a daughter of Elkanah Isaac CANNADAY and Mary KESLER. Is she the same woman mentioned in your email as being married to John Henry WADE? I don't have the name of a husband for her.
