Hi Georgia, I think Edward WADE and Mary CLEMONS had a son named David b. abt. 1747. This David m. Agnes HARDY. David and Agnes had a son named Edward b. abt. 1770. This Edward m. Lucy BURFORD. Do you have any info on the Edward that m. Lucy BURFORD? By the way, I just got back from SC where I was looking for info on my Elijah WADE. While there I checked for Cornelius Hendrix. In fact I checked all 12 counties in Western SC. These cover the old districts of Pendleton, 96, and Spartanburg. I saw no record of Cornelius. I checked land conveyances (direct and indirect), probate records, Common Court records, and various miscellaneous records.

Wade, and was on of three brothers that came to America together about the year 1730, and born about the year 1700. I heard my father say that one of the three brothers located in on of the New England states, one went out west, and the one came to the state of Virginia and that the three brothers came from WALES in Great Britain. Edward Wade and Mary Clemons married 1746-47? in Virginia. Even though James D. Easley lists her maiden name as Clemons, I believe it should have been spelled Clements. In VA and SC records, the Clements family is living near the Wades. Edward and May had a grandson names Thomas Clements Wade. If this Edward Wade is the same Edward Wade that was a vestryman in Antrim Parish in Halifax Co VA in 1752, then we assume he had other family members living there also. The book of Antrim Parish is like a Wade diary. Andrew, Robert, Hampton and 2-3? more men used the same boundry as Antrim Parish for the boundry of Halifax Co VA.. They organized this county in Hampton Wade Sr., living room 1752. This book is on the Internet and many mail order catalogs. It is a must for those who had Wades in Halifax, Mecklenburg and L'burg Counties. (These three Court House Record Books: zero and book one - are also like a Wade diary) I copied at least 20 pages from the book: History of Halifax County, Virginia by Carrington at the Dallas Library last Tuesday. But, it seems at the Library in Richmond VA, there were two books and it listed the men at the meeting on the first pages of the second Volume. I always forget the other men who are not named Wade's names.

I agree that Mary's name is most likely CLEMENTS as the Clements family lived nearby and one of Edward's brothers, the oldest, was named Thomas Clements Wade. Mary was probably the child of Thomas Clements and wife, Mary, neighbors of the Wades. Edward was the 4th child, second son, of David and Agnes. Lucy Burford was the child of Thomas Burford and Mary Wade, herself a daughtrer of Edward Wade and Mary Clements. Lucy's older sister, Charity, married David Wade, another of Edward's brothers. So David and Charity were first cousins and so were Edward and Lucy. David and Agnes are my line. All are named in Thomas Burford's will which in May 1836, so they lived at least that long. Thomas and Mary Burford's graves and 49 others were moved to make way for Lake Lanier. David wade died in 1840 in Lumpkin Co. GA. No dates of death on the others that I see right now Scottie ----- Original Message ----- From: Eldon Wade <ewade@cfl.rr.com> To: <WADE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2001 8:27 AM Subject: RE: [WADE-L] Edward WADE in 1825 Hall Co GA > Hi Georgia, > I think Edward WADE and Mary CLEMONS had a son named David b. abt. > 1747.
