Pane-Joyce Genealogy
Elizabeth Hanford (1887) & Nicholas Wade
4795. John Wade. Born say 1643 in Scituate, MA. John died in Lyme, CT 24 Mar 1727/8.

Nicholas Wade mentioned his oldest son John in his will of 1683. That John was still living in 1711 when the will was executed, but Nicholas’s son Nicholas was appointed executor then, presumably because the eldest son John was not living near Scituate. It may well be that this John Wade of Lyme was Nicholas’s eldest son.

Another possibility, however, is that this John Wade was a son or close relative of William Wade of Windsor and Middletown, CT. That William married Sarah Phelps 9 Jun 1658 at Windsor.
Ca 1680 John first married Elizabeth Durant, daughter of John Durant & Elizabeth Blake. Born ca 1655 in Middletown, CT. Elizabeth died in Lyme, CT on 6 Dec 1704.
