Re: Zephaniah Wade married Verlinda Pottenger

I, too, am descended from Zephaniah WADE(b. 1700 in Maryland, d. 1746 in Virginia) and Verlinda POTTENGER (b. October 19, 1706 in Prince Georges Co., Maryland), through their son, William and Mary SHEPARD.

I show Zephaniah's parents as Robert WADE (b. 1676 in Prince Georges Co., Maryland) and Elizabeth SPRIGG (b. 1679 in Prince Georges Co., Maryland).

I show Zephaniah and Verlinda's children as:
Robertb. abt 1731; Eleanorb. abt 1733; Zephaniahb. abt 1735, d. abt 1794; Williamb. 1737 in Maryland, d. abt 1743 in Adams Co., Ohio; Sarahb. abt 1741, John b. abt 1743.

Did you know there is to be a Wade reunion in Savannah, Andrew Co., MO on Saturday, June 8.I plan to go.Last fall, I met a 96-year-old first cousin of my mother (a granddaughter of my Wade ggrandmother)In Savannah.She was a wealth of information.Unfortunately, I did not have much time to talk to her.Ihope to see her again at the reunion and this time be prepared to gather more information.

I hope this helps you.Please let me hear from you.You can reach me by e-mail at [email protected]
