Sarah Catherine Wade:

Notes:

!NOTES:Maiden name Wade per D/C of son John Wesley and son Charles. I originally thought she might be a Gilbert due to being next door to Martin Gilbert in 1860. Named a son Martin, also named one DeLafayette, and Martin Gilbert had one that name too. Could be coincidence or perhaps she is related to him somehow, or John is.;
