• Notes

  On 12 February 1777 Isaac and Jacob Wade enrolled for one year in Captain George Lambert's Company of the 14th Virginia Regiment of the Continental Line, under the command of Colonel Charles Lewis. They fought in battles at Brandywine and Germantown in Pennsylvania. Later, Isaac Wade enlisted in the Bedford County, Virginia, militia, which was called-up in August 1781 to go to Little York for the planned battle with Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown. There he witnessed the surrender of the British to generals Washington and Lafayette. He was discharged from the militia on the battlefield, immediately after the victory in October 1781. (THE WADE QUARTERLY, Volume 2, Issue 2.) Notes for ISAAC WADE: Bedford County, Virginia, Marriage Bonds February 8, 1779; Isaac Wade and Mary (Gibbs) Stevens; Alexander Gibbs, Surety. More About ISAAC WADE: Burial: Wade Cemetery, Bedford County, VA Bedford County, Virginia, Will Book 1, Pages 512-513 Isaac Wade was a bondsman for the executors of the will of James Hilton which was proved on September 25, 1786. Bedford County, Virginia, Will Book 1, Page 340 Isaac Wade signed the inventory and appraisement of the estate of Thomas Stevens, Jr., which was dated June 15th and presented to court on June 28, 1779, apparently because he had married the widow. His signature was in the place where an administrator or executor usually signed, but he was not designated as either. Neither was he one of the appraiser. Bedford County, Virginia, Will Book 6, Page 1 The will of Isaac Wade was dated May 11, 1821 and proved on September 22, 1823 in Bedford County. In it he made bequests to his wife Polly Wade, to sons Jeremiah Wade, Archibald Wade, Isaac Wade, Jr., Alexander Wade and Paschal Wade, and to daughters Patsy Adams, Polly Gibbs, Nancy Stevens and Sally Ballenger. He also mentioned an open account between Jeremiah Wade, Archibald Wade, Alexander Wade, Gilbert Gibbs, Richard Ballenger, Henry Stevens and himself, without specifying his relationship with Gibbs, Ballenger and Stevens. His wife Polly Wade, Jeremiah Wade and Archibald Wade were appointed to be the executors. Bedford County, Virginia, Deed Book 20, Pages 44 and 46, Abstracts The names of the spouses of the children of Isaac Wade appear in two deeds dated August 11, 1826 from Mary Wade, widow of Isaac Wade, deceased, Jeremiah Wade and his wife Margaret, Archibald Wade and his wife Nancy, Samuel Adams and his wife Martha, formerly Martha Wade, Isaac Wade and his wife Mary, Henry Stevens (Stephens) and his wife Nancy, formerly Nancy Wade, Alexander Wade and his wife Mary, Paschal Wade and his wife Frances, Richard Ballenger and his wife Sally, formerly Sally Wade, legatees and heirs of Isaac Wade, deceased, all of Bedford County, to Gilbert Gibbs and his wife Mary, formerly Mary Wade. Notes for MARY GIBBS: National Archives Pension File: Among the residents of Bedford County, who testified for Polly Gibbs Stevens Wade in 1839 on behalf of her application for a pension as the widow of Issac Wade, were her son, William Stevens, her son Alexander Wade, Mary E. Wade, daughter of Samuel Mitchell, who helped Polly Wade with the gathering of her corn fodder during the fall of 1781, when Isaac Wade was at Yorktown, Jesse Witt, who was in the Army with Isaac Wade at the battles of Brandywine and Germantown, John Arthur, who served in the militia with Isaac Wade at Yorktown, and Mary B. Ryan, who was 78 years old when she testified on May 3, 1839. Mary B. Ryan, who signed with her mark, must have been Mary Ballinger Wade, who married Whitehead Ryan, Jr., was a sister of Isaac Wade. These depositions identify the birth date of Jeremiah Wade, the first child of Isaac and Polly Wade, as January 18, 1780.
