| David W. Wade |
!BIRTH DATE/PLACE (Virginia): Federal Census; 1860; Albemarle County, Virginia; page 628. !MARRIAGE: Albemarle County Marriages, 1780-1853; by John Vogt & T. William Kethley, Jr. (1991); vol. I; page 327. !PARENTS, BIRTH PLACE (Amherst Co.), DEATH DATE/PLACE: Register of Deaths; Albemarle County, Virginia (as abstracted in Death Records Indexing Project, at http://eagle.vsla.edu/drip/). Death date/place also reflected in Will of David W. Wade; Albemarle County, Virginia; Will Book 28; page 134 (executed and probated in 1868). The will mentions his wife Louisa. Says he was born in Nelson County, but Nelson was created from Amherst in 1808. !Although the death register (cited above) identifies David's parents as Daniel and Malvina Wade, the "Malvina" in this record is apparently an error for "Malinda" because (1) Daniel and Malinda Wade, of the right age to be David's parents, were living in Nelson Co. in 1850, (2) Daniel Wade married one "Linney" Witt in Amherst Co. in 1798 (Linney probably being a nickname for Malinda), (3) David was born in Amherst Co. (from which Nelson Co. was created in 1808) two years later, and (4) there is only one Daniel Wade in the 1810 census for Nelson Co. (page 93), and that family includes a male under 10 and another male age 10-15, either of which could be David. (See notes under Daniel Wade for references to the 1850 census and the marriage record.) !See notes under Samuel Wade (in this gedcom) for evidence regarding another possible child of David Wade. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
