Notes for EDWARD WADE II: from Elaine Waiters First Located: Father's Will Last Located: Before 1704 Rent Roll

Will of Edward Wade (Father of Edward Wade II) Pages 11-13, 9 Nov 1675, Proved 24 Apr 1677 at Court for York County

By 1680 some of Edward Wade's family are no longer living in York County but instead have moved just a few miles south to James City County. The reason becomes obvious. Mary Hampton Duke had married Edward Wade sometime after November 1670. She had a large estate in James City that had been given to her by her father Thomas Hampton. This estate next to Henry Duke became the home place for some of the Wades for years.
