hello julie,
i am still searching for a connection to john wade a nd elizabeth lace. all my wades originated from robert wade b. c1704, but i have never found a proper record of his birth.
the only clue i have i the will of jane wade alias christian who died 1710 in kirk andreas. she left her share of a croft to her only son robert on the understanding that her husband would leve his part on his death. as he seemed to be the first wade to settle in jurby i can only believe that he was related to the earlier wades in andreas. i cannot find any other robert wade born anywhere else near to his birthdate.
best wishes.
doug
