James J Wade, son of Jacob and Sarah (Jones) Wade was born 23 Oct 1785 in New Jersey and moved with his parents and siblings to New York in the mid-1790s. The family was enumerated in Sangerfield, Chenango County, New York in 1800 and in Oneida County in 1810. They moved to Stafford, Genesee County by 1820, which is also where the last of James' children were born. It is likely James met and married his first wife in Oneida County, before the move to Genesee County.
In 1850, James was living in Gaines, Orleans County, New York with his second wife Lodema. It is likely he died there in the later 1860's, but his burial location has not yet been identified.
The name of James J Wade's first wife is unknown. Their children included:
H. Wade
Alfred D. Wade
James Wade, Jr.
Sophia (Wade) Potter
Elijah Hamilton Wade
Anna (Wade) Secor Kelsey
George M. Wade

After his first wife's death, James married Lodema Giddings, widow of Festus Giddings (1791-1822). Lodema had two sons by her first marriage: James M Giddings (1818-1897) and Elijah Smith Giddings (1820-1883). Several years after the death of Festus Giddings, she married James J Wade, himself a widower with grown children. The couple lived in Gaines, Orleans County, New York, where they were enumerated in the census records in 1850, 1855 and 1860. Their last deed activity in that county was in 1863. It is likely James died about this time. In 1870 and 1880, Lodema was living with her son Elijah S Giddings in Coldwater, Branch County, Michigan.
