      Note: John Wade's father died when he was about 6. His mother and the family moved to Tazewell County, VA, after she married John Harry. When John Wade was about 18, he left the family and went to Boone County, WVA, where he met Nancy Gillespie. His grandson, James Wade, recalls John Wade telling how he was passing Christiansburg, VA, on horseback in April, 1865. He saw fires and thought the Yankees were burning the town. So he and whoever he was with rode around the town. In fact, the fires were bonfires set to celebrate the end of the Civil War.
