Mrs.
Lucetta Wade Dead
Mrs. Lucetta Wade, nee Wilburn, died at her home on West Plaza
last night at nine o'clock. She was
born in Mississippi, August 10, 1821, came to Clarksville, Texas in 1828, and
to Nacogdoches in 1829. About the year
1872 she married Nathan Wade, who died here about six ears ago. She has but few surviving relatives,
descendants of the Wilburn family, amoung these are John W. Berry, Mrs. George
W. Partin, Mrs. A. A. Russell, W. E. Baxter and W. N. Moore, their brother.
Mrs. Wade's husband, Nathan Wade, lived here in his younger days,
and had an adventurous life, being one of the original soldiers of the Texas
Revolution. He was in several battles
near San Antonio, and present in the seige of that city when Milam was
killed. This and Mrs. Wade's personal
antiquity gave her prominence amoung the Daughters of the Revolution.
She will be buried here in the city cemetery this evening.
(marrieage date is actually 1841) She was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery
unmarked.
