4) NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):
The book Genealogies and Family History of the State of Connecticut by William R. Cutter (published by Lewis Historical Publishing Company, New York, 1911) provides some information on this family on page 2125[1]:
"(VI) Simon (3), son of Simon (2) Wade, was born November 22, 1767. He married, before 1790, Phebe Horton, born May 7, 1772, and lived at Foster. Children: James, born December 10, 1791; Catharine October 12, 1793: Sarah, October 23, 1798; Arnold, June 26, 1800; Olive, September 23, 1802; Miranda, June 25, 1804; Fenner, March 30, 1807; Lawton, mentioned below."
The source for this information is probably Henry Lawton Wade, son of Lawton Wade and grandson of Simon Wade, who is the subject of this biography.
According to the Connecticut book, Simon Wade married Phebe Horton before 1790[1]. They had at least eight children between 1791 and 1810, all probably born in Foster, Rhode Island.
In the 1790 United States Census, Simon Wade, Junior was a head of household listed in Foster town, Providence County, Rhode Island[2]. The household included:
* 1 free white male over age 16
* 1 free white male under age 16
* 1 free white female
Simon Wade Jr. was a head of household in Foster, Providence County, Rhode Island in the 1800 U.S. Census[3]. The household included::
* 1 male aged 10 to 16 years (probably son James (1791-1838), but the age range is wrong)
* 1 male aged 16 to 26 years (perhaps a brother of Simon Wade Jr., or a worked on the farm)
* 1 male over age 45 (it must be Simon Wade (1767-1857), the head of household, but the age range is wrong.
* 1 female aged 0 to 10 years (either daughter Catherine (1793-????) or daughter Sarah (1798-????))
* 1 female aged 26 to 45 years (almost certainly his wife, Phebe (Horton) Wade (1772-????))
In the 1810 United States Census, Simon Wade was a head of household in Foster town, Providence County, Rhode Island[4]. The household included:
* 1 male under age 10 years (probably son Fenner born in 1807)
* 1 male aged 10 to 16 years (probably son Arnold born in 1810)
* 1 male aged 16 to 26 years (probably son James born in 1791)
* 1 male aged 26 to 45 years (probably Simon Wade born in 1767)
* 1 male aged over 45 years (perhaps Simon's father Simon (born in 1731) or a brother or uncle of Simon or Phebe)
* 1 female under age 10 years (probably daughter Miranda born in 1806)
* 1 female aged 10 to 16 years (probably daughter Catherine born in 1793 or daughter Sarah born in 1798)
* 1 female aged 26 to 45 years (probably wife Phebe born in 1772)
* 1 female aged 45 years or over (perhaps Simon's mother or a sister or aunt of Simon's or Phebe's).
In the 1820 United States Census, the Simon Wade family resided in Glocester, Providence County, Rhode Island[5]. The household included:
* one male under age 10 (probably son Lawton)
* one male age 10-15 (probably son Fenner)
* one male age 16-25 (probably son Arnold)
* one male over age 45 (certainly Simon Wade)
* two females age 16 to 25 (probably daughter Miranda)
* two females age 26 to 45 (probably daughter Olive or Sarah)
* one female over age 45 (certainly Phebe)
There were no listings for Simon Wade, born about 1767, in the 1830 or 1840 United States Census records. Perhaps he was enumerated in the household of one of his married children.
In the 1850 United States Census, Simon Wade was in the Lawton Wade household in Killingly, Windham County, Connecticut[6]. The household included:
* Lawton Wade - age 34, male, a machinist, $100 in real property, born foster, R.I.
* Aleph Wade - age 37, female, born Killingly, Ct
* Lewis Wade - age 16, male, born Killingly, Ct.
* Lucy A. Wade - age 14, female, born Gloucester R.I.
* Julia A. Wade - age 13, female, born Killingly, Ct.
* Henry L. Wade - age 8, male, born Bendville R.I., attended school
* Mary A. Wade - age 4, female, born Killingly, Ct., attended school.
* Simon Wade - age 82, male, a laborer, born Foster, R.I.
Simon Wade died 26 April 1857 in Killingly, Connecticut at age 89 years, 5 months, of old age. He was white, a farmer, resided Killingly, born in Foster Rhode Island[7].
No burial record for Simon Wade has been found.
