I just cleaned out a storage area that my siblings and I had rented back in 1991 to store my mom's things after we sold her house. Well, wrapped up in a piece of cloth and stuffed into a tote bag of sorts I found the WADE FAMILY BIBLE. This bible is from 1868 when my g-grandparents were married. I was ecstatic to say the least. Inside of this bible there are quite a few tintypes and very old photos most in very good condition. If anyone, to their knowledge, is related to ALPHONSO and METTIE (SMITH) WADE, children WILLIAM R. , BENJAMIN A., and CLARENCE I would be happy to share these photos with them. I also found ALPHONSO and METTIE original marriage certificate from 9/19/1867. They were married in Michigan probably Leonidas since that was where METTIE was from. It doesn't state the county or city of marriage but does state that it is a State of Michigan Marriage Certificate. The witness' were ASA and LOUISA MUNYON and the minister was EMORY CURTIFS(?). As I stated above METTIE was from Leonidas, Michigan. ALPHONSO was born in Elkhart County, Indiana. ALPHONSO and METTIE lived in St. Joseph, County, Indiana most of their lives.

His parents were David and Elizabeth Oakes Wade. He moved to Cass Co, MI. Benjamin married Grace Viola Hilton, born in Cass Co, MI, whose mother was Elvira Smith (married to Francisco Hilton.) I don't know if Benjamin and his father, David, were related to Alphonzo or not, but they were living in the same vicinity, so it's very likely that they are.

I have a picture of a gentleman and written on the back of it "This is the BENJAMIN WADE that Pop (that's what we called him) is named after." The picture looks to be about the turn-of-the-century. Do you have a picture of your BENJAMIN? Also do you have any of his siblings names?
