Nathaniel Hunt - this was the first marriage in Halifax Co VA. (Andrew Wade Sr. daughter) Did your Wagstaff's know the Wades in York Co VA? Believe Andrew Sr was born in York Co., VA Could there be a connection before Mecklenburg-Halifax Co.? I do know in the census that, Martha Pattie Russell Wade b. Tinkling Springs Augusta Co., VA was living next door to a family of Wagstaff's. My Henderson Wade Sr. migrates to Edgefield Dist., SC and died in 1831. Henderson Jr. b. 1818 SC, the Mother Elizabeth Wilburn Wade, John and Emily; William H.; Burnell Russell, Edward W Wade move to Sumpter Co. AL. Later to Pontotoc Co., MS. Also, interested if your Wagstaff family migrated to SC and Mississippi? Appreicate any help that you may give me on the two families. Thank you, Georgia Hornbuckle Dallas, TX Oct 17th
